Nuné (°1995, Nicosia, Cyprus)
Armenian- Cypriot artist specializing in photography and filmmaking
A passionate filmmaker, visual artist, storyteller, podcast host and youth worker.

Researching the vulnerability of what it means to be human, her works showcase the ways we fall and rise, we learn and grow. The intention of her storytelling is to capture a moment of truth, a moment of intimacy and vulnerability, emphasizing the undeniable fact that we all share similar emotions, we all feel pain and love. A reminder to everyone, to allow each other to feel and safely relate.
