Rebecca Marimutu is a photographer and educator from New York City, based in Baltimore. Her artistic practice explores self, identity, and material tactility through photography, collage, paper sculpture, and audio-visual abstraction. Her work looks to divest from the traditional photography canon by emphasizing contemporary artists interrogating the medium’s history. She received her MFA in 2020 from the Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) in Photographic and Electronic Media, with a concentration in Critical Studies. Her work has been shown at Spring/Break Art Fair in New York, Waller Gallery, Catalyst Contemporary, Black Artists Research Space, and Eubie Blake Cultural Center in Baltimore, MD. Currently, she is a professor at Maryland Institute College of Art (MICA) and Towson University and the founder of Anchovy Press, an independent publishing company based in Baltimore dedicated to storytelling that centers BIPOC experiences.
