Corinthe Rizvi was born in the UK, but grew up in Hong Kong and Canada and has traveled extensively. She studied Fine Art at Central St Martins School of Art and Design, and Arts Computing at Goldsmiths College in London. Alongside making & exhibiting she also has a creative social practice working primarily with people with additional support needs.
Process leaves a trace: on materials / of the body / in the indexicality of a photograph / of the incidental in the planned. Making work, I conflate performance, symbolism and process. My process is deliberately loosely controlled to allow for the inclusion of chance and to force adaptations that are an essential element of the work.
I am interested in metaphors for awareness: the experience of sensory perception overlayed with the inescapable habits of the gestalt of pattern recognition, and in visual memory and nostalgia; images ‘in the minds eye’.
