Nathalia Edenmont, née Nathalie Nicole Edenmont, (born 7 February 1970 in Yalta, Soviet Union) is a Swedish-Ukrainian photo-based artist who moved to Sweden and Stockholm in 1991.[1] Edenmont studied art, music and balette at an art school for children at Jalta in the Crimea. Both her parents died while she was a teenager but she continued to study in a Kiev state school for artists and also studied at Simferopol. She moved to Stockholm in 1991, and studied graphic design at Forsbergs skola. While Edenmont paints portraits of people in a style reminiscent of classical paintings, she is better known for her use of dead animals and animal parts in her photographs.[2][3] She has had exhibitions in London, New York, Berlin and Moscow.[1]

Edenmont presented an episode of the Sveriges Radio show Sommar i P1 on 23 June 2014.[4]
