Artist Name

Nadia Attura

Born: 1968

Hometown: London

Based in: London

Featured in The New York Times, VOGUE, The Guardian, Ideal Home, Aesthetica and ENKI magazine. Nadia creates photographed details which she makes on location these are then layered to form a tableaux of collected scenes within a scene, together they convey a sense of place and time. Applying washes, paints, ink, gold leaf and chalk to the constructed images. Her original photography disappears from documentary single imagery toward a more painterly poetic interpreted view of the world. Aesthetica Magazine writes 'Nadia Attura works with layering techniques to create complex compositions. Often grappling with ideas of idealism and paradise, the bright images are multifaceted tableaux, combining unexpected objects, settings and colours to construct uncanny depictions of desirable destinations."

Nadia's artwork was selected and exhibited at The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2016 and 2019. In 2018 her work was shortlisted for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition. In 2017 she was one of five finalists in the VAO.

Her work features in prominent residential and public projects across the world. Nadia graduated from The University of the Arts London with a Postgraduate in Photojournalism. She works as a fine artist and is primarily based in London.
