Born in 1971 in Fort Defiance (USA), she lives and works in New York.
From her childhood spent between Orlando and Miami, Rachel Feinstein keeps a real fascination for the universe of fairy tales, a universe that she stages in low-tech settings made from basic materials that give her work a "bricolage" aspect. Her videos, filmed in Super 8, invite the viewer to enter a world whose duality is expressed through a "story so magical and wondrous that one instantly feels like abandoning boring everyday reality".
