THE RITA

Book (None) - AMAYA PRODUCTIONS

Credited as the one who gave birth to the Noise sub-genre "HNW / Harsh Noise Wall"; influential artist Sam McKinlay has been operating under the alias The Rita for over 25 years.
Having performed extensively and credited with over 200 releases, the project has grown into a laser focused multidisciplinary venture and is celebrated for pushing the boundaries of ‘Harsh Noise’.
Accompanying The Rita’s singular and often unpredictable sonic output is an inseparable and distinct visual language.
By combining McKinlay’s fine arts education, research, experimentation, and collaboration; the project visually and texturally unites the artist’s interests in minimalist design, noise, ballet, sharks, choreography, and film.
‘Correlations’ presents some of the images and documents McKinlay finds most definitive in his practice.
The monograph is designed to provide a cohesive understanding of the artist’s creative trajectory, as well as illuminate The Rita’s uncanny process that visually, conceptually, and historically ‘connects’ seemingly unrelated subjects.
Published by Amaya Productions and curated by Andrea Stillacci; the monograph includes essays by the art historian and Centre Pompidou curator Nicolas Ballet (‘Shock Factory: The Visual Culture of Industrial Music’), associate Professor and harsh noise artist Lexi Turner (Cornell University), and author, writer, producer Kier-La Janisse (‘House of Psychotic Women’).
