Sarah Ritter became an artist after studying philosophy with Jean-Luc Nancy and photography at the National School of Photography in Arles. Her artistic practice is process oriented and for each project she aims at developing the proper way of making and showing images according to each topic. Her first monograph “La nuit craque sous nos doigts,” was published with Loco editions in 2019. She also edited the book “Wild Rumors, Moby-Dick, Detroit and autres récits” in 2023, which was the outcome of an art research project based on Melville’s book, in collaboration with writers, artists, philosophers and sociologists. Her work is part of several public and private collections in Europe and is regularly exhibited in France, (solo and collective) and in other countries, (collective shows in Finland, Germany, Slovakia, Mexico, Argentina). Ritter received several major grants, like the Institut pour la Photographie des Hauts de France research program, BNF’s “Radioscopie de la France” major commission, the Schneider Foundation prize, and has been also supported by the Fondation des Artistes.
