Miriam Naeh

Miriam Naeh is a multidisciplinary London-based artist working across sculpture, video, sound, and photography. Her practice is focused on storytelling, its subversive tricks and failures, and performative cultural implications. Storytelling implies an act of translation of a given event; she emphasises this notion by mixing the imaginary and the surreal within the world of nonfiction, seeking to create a space where the poetic and the comical coexist. Naeh earned her MFA in Fine Arts at Goldsmiths University, London (2018) and her BA at Musrara School of Art, Jerusalem (2014). She has received various awards, including the a-n Bursaries: Time Space Money (2022), the Freelands Foundation Fund grant (2020), the Gilbert Bayes Award (2019) and the Tiffany & Co. x Outset Studiomakers Prize (2018). Her work has been featured in Vogue, i-D Vice, Harper’s Bazaar, ArtMaze Magazine, and more.
