Through documenting her life and the lives of those she loves, Noémie Reijnen explores the themes of intimacy, identity and environment.

Her recent work turns the lens onto herself, questioning the relationship between the female body and the environment, whilst subverting the covetous male gaze to a softer, more equanimous vision.

Born in France to Dutch parents, her work is imbued with the calm solitude of nature and carries with it the spirit of the forests she grew up in.

Often set in breathtaking landscapes, her photographs call for a deeper connection to the world we inhabit, and speak of a melancholic longing for a return to nature.

This series of self portraits aims to capture the implicit link between the primordial human body and nature. In the age of the Anthropocene and the Capitalocene, as the female body suffers male domination, so does Nature.

The ecological fight and feminist one are deeply linked, and both call for care and connection over material growth and domination.

These stories meet at the intersection of ecology and feminism, with a wish to reclaim the body as primal and question the intertwined relationship to our kin and our environment.
