Nicola Green

Nicola Green is a critically acclaimed artist and social historian.

Nicola has established an international reputation for her ambitious and insightful projects that can change perceptions and challenge prevailing narratives of identity, power, leadership, race and gender. Nicola has a unique perspective, driven by her belief in the capacity of the visual image to communicate important human stories. She chooses to assume the role of ‘witness’ to momentous occasions taking place across the globe, and creates and preserves social-cultural heritage for future generations.  

Nicola gained global recognition for her seminal project In Seven Days....  which resulted from her unprecedented artistic access to Barack Obama’s 2008 Presidential campaign. With a front row seat to historic events, Nicola created a complex visual legacy of this moment in history, which constantly evolves in its dialogue with future generations. 

Nicola is dedicated to social impact and has worked tirelessly towards creating positive change and equality in the artworld and beyond. Nicola co-founded and directed the Diaspora Pavilion at the 57th Venice Biennale, showcasing 22 artists from culturally diverse backgrounds. Nicola also founded the Khadija Saye Arts programme at IntoUniversity which addresses the issue of BAME representation in the creative industries. As co-founder of Sophia Point Rainforest Research Centre, Nicola has championed the preservation and exploration of the Guiana Shield, the largest remaining pristine rainforest on earth. Nicola is also a Principal Artist for the upcoming project The World Reimagined, and is creating a large-scale public artwork that explores climate justice and racial justice.
