Rachel Coleman is a visual artist working in photography and video.
She is inspired by the fleeting and quiet moments of everyday life, resulting in photography that is ephemeral in nature. She is also inspired by healing and transformation, and often uses herself as a subject to explore visual stories that she yearns to tell. Her work draws on personal experiences, family, and connection to self and place. She aims to let both simple and complex narratives play out in her imagery.
Rachel earned a BA in communication from University of Southern Maine. Deciding to explore her life-long interest in photography, she earned a Professional Certificate in Visual Storytelling from Maine Media College in Rockport, Maine in 2023.
