Born in the UK, Rebecca Locke is based in New York City, a place which has proved formative in the development of her installation art, film, photographic, sound and performance-based artwork. She is a graduate of Goldsmiths, University of London, and has studied at the International Center of Photography and the School of Visual Arts in New York City. She is a visiting fellow at the Centre for Urban and Community Research (CUCR), Goldsmiths, University of London and an inaugural member of the Association of Urban Photographers.
The City to Sea Project developed from Rebecca’s practice, exploring the relationship between urban centers and the coast, specifically her hometown, Bognor Regis. In 2013 the project broadened in collaboration with Magnum Photos for a workshop series and screened exhibition at Urban Encounters, Tate Britain. Rebecca exhibits internationally, and recent exhibitions include the Lab Film Festival, London, Visual Urbanism: Perspectives on Contemporary Research, The British Library, London, Festival de la Imagen, Manizales, Columbia and the first Bienal de Fotografía, Lima, Peru, which featured the video and sound series Lugares qui fui.
The artist is currently working on a new film, E pluribus unum, and a self-portrait based series exploring narrative identity.
