Rebecca Goldschmidt

Rebecca Maria Goldschmidt was born in Phoenix, Arizona in 1987. Her background in languages and image-making are her tools on a path exploring hybrid processes of digital and analog photography, assemblage/collage/montage, video, and sound. Raised in the ponderosa pines of Flagstaff and on the coast of Lake Michigan in Chicago, the act of relocating, readjusting and nomadic change has been a constant. She chooses to work in community spaces on collaborative, educational projects that reclaim knowledge that has been suppressed, devalued, or otherwise marginalized. Rebecca is currently a candidate for a Master of Fine Arts in the Department of Art and Art History at the University of Hawai’i at Mānoa in Honolulu. Her current work explores the lives of Filipino-Americans in Hawai’i and the decolonial reclamation of language, culture, and knowledge.
