Noémie Baumann

Noémie is a French Fine Art photographer with roots in Italy, Estonia, and Ukraine who draws inspiration from the rich diversity of cultures that have shaped her identity. Growing up in Nice, she was surrounded by the colorful buildings of the French Riviera, her love for architecture has grown and continued to evolve as she traveled the world. Her passion for analogue photography blossomed during her time at the Parsons School of Design in New York City, where she studied photography and honed her skills with a Hasselblad 500c. More than a form of meditation, photography is for Noémie a way to fully immerse herself in the present moment and capture a sense of calm and timelessness in her images. Over time, her focus shifted from black and white to color photography, from sharp angles and lines, to sensuous curves, from cityscapes to landscapes. She has increasingly been drawn to water, as an element and as a metaphor to delve deep within and explore the profound essence of what truly constitutes a home. Having lived in New York City, Berlin, Milan, Moscow, Nice and Tunis, she is now based in Paris, but Home is where the Mediterranean is.
