Mending Forest, cyanotype with embroidery, 2025

Dora Somosi is a Hungarian-American lens-based artist whose practice centers on landscape and alternative photographic processes. Working in cyanotype, hand-coated paper, and plant-dyed embroidery thread, she creates bodies of work rooted in deep research and site-specific pilgrimage.

Before her art practice, Somosi spent a decade as Director of Photography at GQ/Condé Nast, where she commissioned and shaped some of the most distinctive editorial photography of that era.
