"Anslen Kiefer said “memory is my only homeland,” and I find myself moving through the world always looking for ways to keep, remember and preserve memories, people and experiences. In all of my searching, the most effective way I’ve found so far has been my camera."
Nat Segebre (they/them)
Nat is a Colombian-American photographer, darkroom printer, director and writer based in Hollywood, Florida. They have a BFA in photography and imaging with a minor in creative writing from NYU’s Tisch School of The Arts, and they were born and raised in south Florida.
Nat's photographic work consists of vibrantly complex images that capture the everyday through a meditative and transformative lens. Nat only shoots on film and prints all of their work in the darkroom. Every aspect of their work, from film selection and processing to darkroom printing, adheres to traditional photographic techniques, and they solely use these analog methods to achieve their colorful and rich images. Seeing an original darkroom print in person is the best way to view Nat’s work.
Currently, they are working on their first book—a long term photo project on Coney Island consisting of color darkroom prints and color slides that span over three years. Since moving back to their home state of Florida, Nat has also been working on exploring and photographing across the state.
Nat is the creative director of south Florida rock band Staircase Spirit, and they create and coordinate all of the visual media for the band.
