Jennifer Lauren Martin is an artist and filmmaker whose work grapples with questions of interpersonal belonging. Working across film and moving image, sound, performance, writing, and more, their projects explore a fear of never being understood by others, which often manifests as inner struggles, made visible in physical effects on the characters’ bodies.

They were awarded a Film London Lodestar as an Artist Filmmaker in 2021. Other awards include the Stuart Croft Foundation Education Award (2018) and Durham Wharf Foundation Award (2017). Lauren Martin is a co-director of not/nowhere, a black and POC-led film coop and a senior tutor at Ruskin School of Art, Oxford University.
