Natalie Mitchell is a multidisciplinary artist and curator based in London.

Working across moving image, photography, oral history, archives, they draw on collaborative and research-led processes to explore questions of visibility, place and collective experience across different communities, including Black diasporic histories.

Through fieldwork, archival research and dialogue, their work brings together image-making and lived histories to trace how personal and collective memory is held, transmitted and re-imagined.
