Oksana Rudko is a sound artist based in São Paulo, working across installation, moving image, and algorithmic translation.

Her practice is grounded in field recording as a method of attentive listening, through which she explores how sound mediates migration, ecological change, and more-than-human memory. Through processes that translate sound across media, she constructs works in which acoustic material is displaced, reconfigured, and reintroduced into new spatial and cultural contexts.

Her work has been presented internationally, including at the Moscow Museum of Modern Art (MMOMA), Winzavod Center for Contemporary Art, The Wrong Biennale, and SACO Biennial, as well as on platforms such as NTS Radio. In 2024, she received the Sound of the Year Award (Radiophonic Institute, UK) for Whisper of the Stars, which was later exhibited as an installation at the historic Pier in Antofagasta, Chile.

She has participated in residencies including Silo – Arte e Latitude Rural (Brazil), and the Salzburg International Summer Academy of Fine Arts. Born in Siberia, she previously lived in Saint Petersburg and Moscow before relocating to Brazil in 2022.
