Naomieh Jovin is a first-generation Haitian-American artist. In her work, Jovin utilizes appropriated photos from old family albums in conjunction with her photographs to illustrate the complex concepts of resistance and intergenerational trauma, and how these experiences are carried in our bodies and passed down across generations.

Jovin holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in photography and digital arts from Moore College of Art & Design. Jovin’s work has been featured in prominent publications such as The Nation, Aperture, the New York Times, and Vogue Italia. In recognition of her artistic achievements, Jovin was named a 2022 Magnum Counter Histories Fellow and a 2024 Philadelphia Cultural Treasures Fellow.
