Fabienne Rachmadiev is a writer and researcher. In her practice she combines art, theory and literature to create communal events and programs, such as In Extractive Terrains (2023) for Framer Framed and Sea, Dream, Land, Mine for Kunstfort Vijfhuizen – both collective reflections on lands, bodies and histories of extraction from Central and North Asia, as well as the expansive steppes between Eastern Europe and Asia.
Her essays, fiction and art writing have appeared in various publications and book collections. She regularly contributes art criticism to De Groene Amsterdammer and Metropolis M, among others. Her dissertation is on temporalities of contemporary art in Central Asia, with a special focus on ecology and colonial histories (University of Amsterdam). Her novel, on an unlikely community on the outskirts of Almaty in the ’90s, is forthcoming with Das Mag publishers.
