Richianny Ratovo (1995, Antananarivo. Lives in Antananarivo) is a visual artist whose practice moves between drawing, pyrography, painting, and poetry. Her work explores the materiality of memory and the transmission of Malagasy traditional narratives, through experimental uses of techniques and mediums such as glass and wood. She studied architecture and design, disciplines that influence the spatial construction of her works. Ratovo has held solo and group exhibitions in Antananarivo, at institutions including Institut Français, Cercle Germano-Malagasy, and Hakanto Contemporary.
