Catherine Kirpichnikova

Catherine Kirpichnikova is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Catherine Kirpichnikova kept a camera in her coat pocket like other people stash tissues, ready to catch whatever caught her eye. She snapped small, quiet photographs that feel like overheard sentences: a cracked window, a frayed curtain, the exact slant of light on a kitchen floor at 3 p.m. Look up her “Untitled (Photograph)” and you’ll see why her pictures stay with you; they’re the kind you want to print and tape to the fridge.
