Greta Koshenina is a cyanotypist, documentarian, and poet based in Oxford and Water Valley, Mississippi. She earned her MA in Southern Studies with a focus on Documentary Expression in 2023. Greta is now pursuing her MFA in Southern Studies, focusing on her academic and artistic endeavors. Her work blends archival family photos with current images, creating surreal photographs and collages using the cyanotype process. This technique imparts an antiquated aesthetic, evoking the ephemeral quality of dreams, place, childhood memories, and mythology. Koshenina is interested in the intersection of spirit and the subconscious. Her work represents these themes, as well as womanhood, biophilia, and belonging.
