Rufina Bazlova (*1990, Grodno, Belarus) is a Belarus-born, Prague-based intermedia artist whose practice engages with collective memory, identity, and feminist perspectives. Her international recognition grew after the 2020 post-election protests in Belarus, when she began transforming traditional Slavic embroidery into a visual language addressing contemporary sociopolitical realities in the region. By reclaiming folk craft as a medium of resistance and solidarity, she has created works that resonate within Slavic cultures while remaining accessible worldwide. In 2022 her ornamentation gained symbolic prominence when Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelenskyy wore it during Independence Week celebrations. Since 2021 Bazlova has led the international project #FramedinBelarus, dedicated to political prisoners in her homeland, engaging communities in collaborative creation and providing a platform for voices often excluded from the mainstream art discourse. 

Bazlova received an EU4Culture grant and a CEC ArtsLink fellowship at HPAC in Chicago. She is an upcoming fellow of the Inherit program at Humboldt University in Berlin, and her projects have been presented internationally, including at the International Triennial of Textile in Łódź.
