Vanessa Endeley is a self-taught visual artist, fine art and documentary photographer born and raised in the city of Lagos. Fine Art Photography is the medium through which she expresses herself, bringing her portraits to life using a lot of colour. She is focused on addressing the social injustices faced by Nigerian women, education, health and insecurity in the north eastern region of Nigeria. Her on-going project, Working Women, aims to document sex workers and the trials they go through as a result of their profession, humanising these women and portraying them as being just as valid a human being as the next person.
