Noga Shatz is a London-based multidisciplinary artist. She holds an MFA with distinction from the Slade School of Fine Art, University College London.

​

Her practice explores layered queer identities through historical, mythological, and feminine narratives. Trained as a painter, Shatz pushes beyond traditional forms by employing experimental processes. Working with hand-dyed, unstretched canvases—often produced in domestic spaces such as her bathtub, she shifts her work away from the constraints of the male painter’s gaze, transforming canvas into sculptural forms that float in space. By embracing the fluidity of cloth, she reconnects her practice with the cultural and historical significance of textiles as a traditionally female domain.

​

A vital part of her work is community engagement. Shatz is the founder of The Open Art Club CIC, an LGBTQ+ led social organisation offering fully subsidised art programmes. She has partnered with other social organization and funding bodies such as Arbeit Studios, Drag Syndrome, and The Foundation for Future London to deliver inclusive workshops and talks centred on female, non-binary, and queer identity for East London communities.

​

Her work has been recognised with numerous awards, grants, and features, including the Anthony Dawson Print Award (2015), the Slade Summer School Residency (2015), Highly Commended Artist at the Ashurst Emerging Artist Prize (2019), the Rabinovich Foundation Exhibition Support Grant (2019), Arts Council England Grant (2020), The Flux Review (2021), The Foundation for Future London Award (2022 & 2023), ZARATAN AIR (2025), and Floorr Magazine (2025).

​

Shatz has exhibited internationally in both solo and group shows. Selected highlights include EXH 15, London, UK (2025), Theia at Niru Ratnam Gallery, London, UK (2024), 50,000 Witches at OPC Gallery, London, UK  (2023), Identity- Frankfurt, Germany (2020), and Foreign Subject at Artworks Project Space, London (2019).
