Ne-Dah-Ness Rose Greene is an emerging BIPOC photographer from Leech Lake. She is self-taught, mentored by the late Reginald Johnson, and has received support by numerous Indigenous entities and community members. Photographing her community since 2016, Greene continually challenges herself to engage people in her creative process and to diversify her approach in the multi-faceted art form of photography. Greene is a social activist through art and has a unique way of reaching people through the vision and ‘voice’ of her lens. There is a sense of intimacy in her imagery that evokes emotion and understanding from the viewer through the moments she captures. The camera, various lenses, and the right settings are all essential to producing her art. Her creative intuition and mastery of the camera is well-known internationally in Indigenous communities.

Greene has been selected for a wide range of exhibitions and photoshoots, including “Nibikaang – From the Water”, Miikanon Gallery at the Watermark Art Center, Bemidji, MN; Community Unity, Hennepin County Franklin Library, Minneapolis, MN; “I am not their nanny, I am their mom.
