Nao Nagamura is a London-based textile artist working primarily with hand embroidery. Trained at the Royal School of Needlework, her practice investigates the relationship between language and perception, time, and material through slow, repetitive processes. Rooted in traditional techniques and natural materials, her work explores duration, attention, and the quiet presence of hand-making. She has contributed to the Coronation work within the Embroidery Studio at the Royal School of Needlework. She is the founder of Goodness Makes, an ongoing project connecting art, care, and sustainability.
