Artist Statement/Bio

Nina Menconi is a California-born photographer and visual artist who splits her time between
San Francisco and Seville, Spain. Her work explores the intricate, often hidden layers of human
experience, drawing on themes of the universal feminine, ancestral inheritance, personal
psychology, and grief. Working across documentary and experimental approaches, Menconi
creates imagery that speaks to the complexity of identity and the subconscious.
Menconi received her BA in Photojournalism from San Francisco State University, and has been
working in the commercial photography space for over 15 years. In 2018 she began her fine art
practice which she has used as a personal journey of self-discovery, finding a visual language
of her own to express what words cannot. Her work has been exhibited at the Los Angeles
Center for Photography, the Griffin Museum, and Les Rencontres d'Arles, among others.
