Nora Rupp (1981) is a Swiss photographer. She graduated in photography from the École Supérieure d'Arts de Vevey in 2003. She worked for 10 years as a photographer at the Museum of Fine Arts in Lausanne, and today devotes herself full-time to his personal practice.
Her project is a continuation of his artistic approach around self-portraiture. For over 22 years, she has been directing and photographing herself in different female roles. She uses her body to confront herself and question the condition of women in our society. Her self-portrait work allows her to fight against internalized mechanisms throughout her life. Her committed projects lead us to observe the oppressions exerted on women.
In her early days, the photographer was inspired by Cindy Sherman and then moved towards more assertive feminist issues. Nora Rupp's work, while responding to current questions and issues, in a context of the 2020s in Europe, takes place in a continuation of the work of women feminist artists.
