Lauren Wilhelm

Juxtaposing imagery that is vaguely reminiscent of classical paintings with modern themes, Lauren’s work is her comment on transience.
Colour is used boldly in this new body of work but the paintings often evoke a strong sense of melancholy and reflection.

My work is an examination of the human condition as I see it – the ephemeral nature of life and our preoccupation with the minutia of everyday living, ignoring our own expiry and the damage to the environment around us.”
