Naomi Pacifique

Naomi Pacifique is a Swiss-Dutch artist. She was born in Costa-Rica and grew up in Lausanne, Switzerland. She graduated from Oxford University with an Mst in Creative Writing and from London Film School with an MA in Filmmaking. Her graduation film from London Film School, ‘After a Room’, was awarded the Pardino d’Argento Swiss Life at Locarno Film Festival 74. Both this film and her subsequent short film, ‘Looking She Said I Forget’, gesture at the boundaries still in place today that limit our experience of intimacy.

Across the arts, Naomi’s work focuses on intimacy and ecology. She is currently developing her first two feature films ‘After the Night, the Night’, and ‘Rocks Like Skin Like Thoughts’, supported by LIM, Ikusmira Berriak, Locarno Film Festival, and Start Me Up. Naomi is currently based in Amsterdam.

Rocks Like Skin Like Thoughts

LIM 2025

Luz and Santiago head to the rocks and the sea for the day, to discuss the relationships they have had with other partners recently. They are trying to reconnect with one another, having caused each other pain. As they sift through their experiences, they end up asking their questions about love to the waves and also the stones. After all they have been there for so long, rising and bouncing off one another, coming back to each other, for millions of millions years. Shouldn’t they know something about it all too?
