Sophie Stubbs is a Bermudian artist who grew up in Essex, England. She moved to Bermuda in 2020 and has enjoyed getting to know the island. Stubbs graduated from Newcastle University in 2022 with a Bachelor of Arts in Architecture and is currently working in an architecture practice in Bermuda. She plans to pursue a master’s degree in 2025.
She says: “My photography focuses on people’s urban and rural experiences. Most of the subjects in my photographs are captured having a quiet moment of solitary contemplation. I take most of my photographs with my smartphone. I believe photography doesn’t always require expensive equipment and that photographers can develop their craft with a smartphone by experimenting with its photo-editing tools.
