Studio HermiH is the home of Naomi Lewis’s Photography and Film work and her collaborative practice with long time creative partner, Charlie Cattrall.

Lewis lives in the UK and is a lens-based artist whose practice investigates the intersection of the maternal - as an agentive force in nature - the erotic, and societal control. Drawing from personal origins - specifically growing up with a mother who suffered from serious mental illness - Lewis examines how cultural disregard for mothering forms and ways impacts human behaviour. Her work confronts the contemporary reduction of the erotic to physical sexuality, viewing it as a structure of governance. Ultimately, her practice seeks the decolonisation of both, carving out open space for these generative foundations of existence. She holds an MA in Photography from the Royal College of Art, her photographic work is represented by Albumen Gallery
