Katerina Jebb

Katerina Jebb is a British contemporary artist whose work explores systems of classification, reproduction, and display, particularly within museums and archives. She is best known for her large-scale photographic works produced using flatbed and museum scanning technologies, which isolate and magnify objects from institutional collections, transforming them into highly detailed, monumental images. Jebb’s practice frequently engages with questions of authorship, originality, and the politics of representation. By employing scanning processes normally associated with documentation and conservation, she removes objects from their historical or cultural contexts and presents them as visual data, emphasizing surface, texture, and form.
