AA2A Student Amabassador

Lauren Lakin

Ambassador scheme:
Course: BA Fine Art
Statement: 

I am a Shropshire-based artist whose work explores creativity, emotion, and the power of self-expression. My current inspirations include the timeless beauty of Roman and Italian art and the refined elegance of Japanese aesthetics, traditions which speak to strength, harmony, and resilience. I’m deeply fascinated by the works of Picasso and Manet, but most profoundly by Artemisia Gentileschi. Her extraordinary talent, courage, and determination to create despite injustice remind me that art can be a force for empowerment and change. Through my practice, I strive to channel that spirit, uncovering my inner artistic voice and creating work that resonates deeply.
