Artist Bio

Self portrait of Wanda Lotus.

Wanda Lotus (she/her) is a street photographer based in The Bronx (NY). She is self-taught and works with both digital and 35mm film photography. Inspired from an early age by National Geographic Magazine and disillusioned by American celebrity culture, she uses her work to spotlight life outside of that exclusive bubble. Her photos have most recently been exhibited as part of the multi-media showcase “For the Love of Women in House” in New Jersey (2019) and in the group show “The Corner” at the Bronx Documentary Center (2018). She is currently working on an ongoing series featuring NYC subway riders and another spotlighting NYC house music DJs and the dancers at their events.
