About the Artist: Dara Lorenzo is a Baltimore-based multimedia artist. She holds a BFA from Towson University 2008 in Printmaking, an MFA in 2012 from San Francisco Art Institute in Printmaking and Interdisciplinary Studies. Currently residing in Baltimore, MD, she has her own art practice and owns Zo Gallery, a multi media art gallery. She currently exhibits her work nationally and internationally. She also is a professor of the arts currently at Towson University, Goucher College and CCBC. Lorenzo’s work is an investigation into self discovery and connections within the currents of our human race. This artwork connects memories, sentimentalism, expressions of empathy and self reflection through printmaking. The work ponders over a lifetime of collected images in spaces revisited and in her current situations. The presence of an obsession with understanding one’s existence through the artist’s perspective is conveyed through a multi-layered printmaking process. Lorenzo scrap-books and compiles photo albums of a personal diary dialogue through the printing press with old personal notes and torn pages of her own book collection. The text in the art reveals hard truths about self doubt, embarrassment and anxieties experienced by the artist referencing what it is to be alive.
