Lives and Works in
Nathan was born in 1996 from an Italian mother and a Cameroonian father. 

He grew up in a small post industrial town of Belgium where his grandparents as well as many other south Italian families emigrated to work in the coal mines. 

He received his first camera from his father at 9 years old while visiting his family in Cameroon. From there, he starts documenting life around him, finding inspiration in the richness and texture of the communities that made him. 

He wishes for his photography to be a modest look at his own experience of life.

Projects

For all the good things and everything in between

“For all the good things and everything in between”, is an act.

An ongoing visual journal that I use as an anchor.

A process that is not defined by an idea, simply a result of the human need to possess the present moment, to remember the past and look forward to the future.

An ode to the everyday life happening around me.
