Lola Ramona
Portfolio Artist Statement Online Information       Lola Ramona's drawings fuse mythology, religious iconography, fairy tales, and pop culture into exquisite composites. She filters the world through stories and metaphors in order to create an "emotional taxidermy". Lola draws freehand - using memories, historical art references, still life, and photography as "models". The details that often go unnoticed in life become the pivotal tensions in the images - they reveal vulnerability and tenderness: a tragic/comic poetry.
Using materials such as graphite, acrylics, oil paints, glitter, and gold leaf, the drawings illuminate precious moments that have the power to bring forth recognition, nostalgia, and humility. |
