MEANNORTH
Naja Conrad, aka “Meannorth”, has a gift: dry humor, depth beneath the cool exterior, and yes, talent. Her unconventional alias, undoubtedly an eye catcher, stimulates one’s imagination: Is “Meannorth” a badass chick from Northern Europe? Does she mean North? Is it a statement or a question? She won’t tell. Conrad likes to challenge herself as well as her audience. In her work, she strives to fabricate a fictive universe around her subjects, always eager to bare their very soul. “I usually make up a short story or sentence of what my characters could say or think”, she says. She creates a distinct personality for each one of them. Whether it is editorial work or art pieces for exhibitions, she tries to get to the core of it.
