Alina Rentsch (b. 1992, Berlin) lives and works in Berlin.

Rentsch’s practice examines spatial expectation and the structures that shape orientation, display, and movement. Working across installation, text, and image, she approaches space as material rather than backdrop, engaging with the social and economic codings embedded in these systems. Drawing on the logics of advertising and signage, her works create situations that guide perception while remaining deliberately open, operating between analysis and seduction.

Rentsch holds a BFA from Weißensee Academy of Art, Berlin and graduated with a MFA from Konstfack, Stockholm in 2022. She has participated in exhibitions, programs, and workshops at Linienstraße, Düsseldorf; Petrine, Paris (all 2024); Vapaan Taiteen Tila, Helsinki (2023); Petrine, Paris; Ehemalige Postsparkasse, Vienna; Index–The Swedish Contemporary Art Foundation, Stockholm; B7L9 Art Station by Kamel Lazaar Foundation, Tunis; Magito/Suvilahti, Helsinki; Studio Giardini, IASPIS program during the 59th Venice Biennale, Venice; Nordiska Konstförbundet, Stockholm (all 2022); Salon am Moritzplatz, Berlin (2021); Konsthall C, Stockholm (2019); and Kunstraum Kreuzberg/Bethanien, Berlin (2018).
