Emilia Lazaro

Emilia Lazaro is a London based interdiscaplinary artist. Over the past year she has undergone her Foundation Diploma in Art and Design at Ravensbourne University London.

Lazaro is concept driven in her approach and while photography is central to her practice, she works across a range of mediums, including instillation, moving image and other digital processes. She is drawn to using whatever methods best communicate her idea, exploring different ways of constructing and presenting visuals. Lazaro likes to draw attention to how and why her work was made and approaches each project as an open ended investigation. She has a willingness to challenge conventional approaches to image making and is eager to continually evolve her skills, ideas, and visual language.

Part of my “Resistance & Adaptation” project exploring the parallels between the resilience of plants in nature with the defiance of subcultures in urban spaces. The project uses scanning and digital manipulation to explore the pressures of overconsumption, homogenisation, and systemic control, reimagining how both ecosystems and communities resist and adapt to these pressures.

In Response to “How not to be seen” brief, Lazaro explored the intersection of visibility, identity, and digital distortion through photography and the use of  projection mapping. Rooted in research around dazzle camouflage, and modern facial recognition technologies, Lazaro's response explores how visual manipulation can act as both self expression and resistance in an age of surveillance.
