LORNA STOVALL
I grew up in San Diego, CA, and received my BS in Applied Art from Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo. In the 20+ years following, I worked in the print design field, starting my career in the Los Angeles music industry. During this time, I explored my passion for photography, experimentation and the element of chance. In addition to my commissioned work, I created assemblage pieces that encompassed my photography. It was at this time that I indulged my curiosity of using alternative cameras and processes in my work.
I currently live in New York City and am now focused solely on my art. My subjects range from abandoned landscapes to narrative portraits of my neighbors in NYC. Most recently I have been exploring alternative digital photography techniques, such as pinhole lenses, teleidoscopes and printing on alternative substrates.
I am excited to announce 2 of my series will be on exhibit at the FotoNostrum Gallery in Barcelona, Spain from Oct 7-28, 2019
