Nath-Sakura (born September 11, 1973 in Girona) is a Catalan-Spanish photographer. She is of unknown parents and was raised in an orphanage. She became a photographer because "she couldn’t paint", as she explained to Art Nou, the Catalan reference art magazine.

Biography

In her early years, Nath-Sakura became a PhD graduate in political philosophy. She then took up a career as a professional reporter and later decided to transition to living as female.[1] Her work is mostly about the movement between genders and aims to show with great subtlety the "metaphysical brutality" in being born again.

She now lives in the south of France, near Montpellier, and works for many non-specialized daily and weekly newspapers as a photo reporter. To date she has published five photography books and appeared in many exhibitions. She is one of the associated artists of the Bertold Foundation in Lugano, Switzerland.

Both a photo reporter and an art photographer, Nath-Sakura shows the real in a tragic and quirky way through pictures yielding themselves to multiple layers of reading.
