Nyah Rodriguez

Freelance Photographer

Nyah is a non-binary, American- born Street and Portrait Photographer. At the age of five, Nyah’s family decided to head back to the homeland. They were raised in Mexico City up until the age of nineteen. Nyah then moved to the United  States and immediately felt ostracized.  While adjusting to a white , cis-gendered male -dominated society, Nyah began to ponder how they could use art to shine light upon these vivid cultural inconsistencies. This ultimately forced them to view the foreign images in which their gender ideologies had been rooted. During this profound time of transition, Nyah became inspired by the profound history  of diverse, marginalized communities. Nyah uses their lens to capture the essence of these relatable human experiences. Their storytelling tableaux highlight the strength and integrity of the queer community while simultaneously showcasing the colorful landscapes of art embedded upon the cities in which they thrive.
