Lola Lazaro Hinks is a London based artist working with glass and photography. She is drawn to delicate and dark qualities, introspection, the psyche, and the unseen parts of the mind. The material qualities of transparency and opacity are recurrent as paths to investigate into the obscured and the visible; consciousness, the illusionary nature of perception and what is unconscious within the mind. Objects which obscure vision are a thread throughout the work, those which play with thresholds and liminal space, through teasing vision they can allow us to see deeper within ourselves. Layered sculptures, containers, privacy screens and fans are all objects of glimpses, inspired by the veiling of perception itself. Her photographic language has developed gradually over time, working in the darkroom with exposing light through the glass sculptures she makes, continuing the dialogue between the visible and unseen.
