Artist's website

Tealia Ellis Ritter (b. 1978) is an American artist. Her debut monograph, The Model Family, was released in February, 2022 by Loose Joints. Ellis Ritter's work contends with the intersecting roles of the photograph as personal document, familial marker of time and object with physical surface. Her interests lie in exploring in both a physical and emotional sense the act of looking and being looked at in return, coupled with the desire to understand the changing nature of intimacy over time. She is presently engaged in a long term project documenting family members in both a representational and abstract manner, with a focus on the physicality and vulnerability of the human body.

Ellis Ritter’s work has been exhibited internationally, most recently by Aperture, Taschen NYC, the Swab Art Fair, Barcelona and as part of Designing Women III: MOTHER. Her work has also appeared in numerous publications, including The New Yorker, The British Journal of Photography, AnOther Magazine, Wallpaper Magazine, i-D, Mouvement Magazine, France, Youthies Magazine, Public Editions, The Financial Times of London and Elephant Magazine.
