Romilly Rinck

Romilly’s process is craft-based, led by the materials she works with and the places she inhabits and researches. Romilly is interested in the anima loci, or the spirit of a place, so her work is often site-sensitive and incorporates materials foraged from specific locations.  As an animist, she is curious about the stories materials can tell and creates a mythology of materials through sculpture and installation.
