R A C H A E L A L L A I N

I am a multidisciplinary artist whose practice is informed by an investigation and embodied exploration of place, using residencies (in near and remote locations) as a methodology. I am currently preparing for a month-long (September 2026) art and research residency on Örö, a former military fortress island on the outskirts of the Finnish archipelago.
My work explores areas both above and below the horizon, as well as the edges between land and bodies of water. Working with both analogue and scientific digital data, revealing invisible realms within our visible world. My materials include my body as a site of sensation and experience, experimental film, expanded notions of photography, optical devices, both within and beyond the electromagnetic field of vision, microscopic imaging, light, projection, sound, ephemera, text, water, and weather data.
