Tricia Rosenkilde is an American artist recognized for her work with alternative photographic processes. Her images are informed by her interest in early modern European history, and she imagines and visualizes the connections between the past and the present. Valuing craftsmanship and materiality, she uses hand-made printing methods such as platinum-palladium, cyanotype, and gum bichromate to create unique, poetic, and timeless pieces.
Rosenkilde graduated from Rutgers University's Mason Gross School of the Arts with a BFA in Painting and Art History. She continued her studies in Paris, France, and created an extensive body of work using homemade camera obscura or "pinhole" cameras with film and paper negatives. Her Panoramic Pinholes, Impressions, and Paper Negatives series portrays images of classic European sites, including French and Italian châteaux and gardens. Her upcoming body of work, Lipizzaners, honors the venerable Lipizzaner horses whose history and traditions date back to the 1500s.
Rosenkilde’s photographs have been widely displayed in the US, including at The Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, Nicolas Auvray Gallery, the International Center of Photography, and the Penumbra Foundation in NYC, among others. Rosenkilde is a faculty member at the International Center of Photography and the Penumbra Foundation in NYC. She lives and works in the NYC metropolitan area and is represented by Nicolas Auvray Gallery, NYC.
