Naomi Vona is an Italian artist born in 1982 in Desio near Milan. She trained in design and photography at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan and now lives in London. Vona calls herself an archival parasite with no bad intentions because she invades forgotten photographs and postcards with vivid additions of paint washi tape stickers and hand drawn doodles. Her process starts with vintage images found online or in thrift shops and she covers them with bright patterns botanical motifs and abstract marks that breathe new life into anonymous faces and places. The layered surfaces become playful collisions between past and present inviting viewers to question memory ownership and the urge to leave personal traces on collective history.

Since 2013 she has developed this recognisable style while exhibiting in group and solo shows across Europe and selling limited edition prints and originals at designer markets. Workshops in Milan and London allow her to share her techniques encouraging others to reimagine found imagery. Each finished piece balances respect for the original photograph with bold contemporary intervention creating small intimate universes where nostalgia meets fearless color.
