Luka Naujoks

*1998, lives and works in Berlin (DE)

Luka Naujoks (b. 1998, based in Berlin) works primarily with largescale photography printed on canvas. With her own logical understanding, she traces the expanding and limiting conditions of this medium by integrating painterly and installativ aspects. Her practice deals with the conditions, networks, and infrastructures behind artistic recognition.
Since 2025, she has been studying Fine Arts in the class of Prof. Heike-Karin Föll at the Berlin University of the Arts, following her studies in Painting and Photography at the Academy of Fine Arts Leipzig from 2019 to 2025 (Class Prof. Michael Riedel).
