Naomi

Naomi began her photography journey at Nottingham College before moving to Bristol ro continue her studies at the University of the West of England, gaining a First-Class Honours in BA Photography.   Relocating from her family home sparked a personal exploration into themes of Black culture, family and identity. This shift inspired Naomi to reflect on what it means to live away from her roots and how these experiences have shaped her sense of self. Her work is shaped by a continuous curiosity and a desire to tell heartfelt, authentic stories.  Known for ‘Grandad’, a personal project that delves into her Grandad’s life and has been exhibited in exhibitions around the UK, online platforms and digital billboards.   Looking ahead, she hopes to collaborate with like-minded creatives and educators, with a particular interest in facilitating workshops in UK schools. Naomi aims to explore ideas of belonging and demonstrate how photography can be used as a therapeutic, expressive tool for storytelling and self-discovery.
