Nel Samwa is a Ghent-based artist driven by societal issues. As a Burenhinder resident she has captured a beautiful community and safer space using a consent-based approach that prioritizes discretion and anonymity. The collective plays a big role in her discovery of nightlife from a different point of view, exploring it around the country and even outside of it. After graduating from her master Visual Arts at Luca Ghent about a year ago, she has been reconnecting with the city and its nightlife scene. Currently taking more interest in portrait photography and scenography, she is more than excited to discover these fields further through local community.

With her (print)work she explores paradigms that come from, but also maintain, the social, political and ecological structures of contemporary globalized society, that she criticizes and aims to dismantle.
