Lina Ivanova is a Bulgarian artist, based in London. Her practice is social and autobiographical, hugely influenced by her move to the UK at the age of thirteen, personal experiences forming the roots of her exploration of the self, being and becoming. She uses photography processes and material to investigate narratives of accessibility, belonging, displacement and migration.
Lina Ivanova graduated with a BA in Photography (2015), she co-founded Revolv Collective (2017) and completed a Postgraduate Certificate of Education (2018). She was awarded the Turner Contemporary Portfolio Prize (2018), completed an artist residency at Ashford School (2017) and participated in the research workshop The Stuff of Photography, at The Photographers Gallery (2019). Her work has been shown widely, including at The Royal Photographic Society, Hundred Heroines Exhibition (2019), South Bermondsey Art Trail (2020), Seen Fifteen gallery (2020), Goethe Institute, Bulgaria and Peckham 24 (2021).
