BIO

NYC native Veronica Lawlor is a reportage artist and painter whose work has been shown in national and international galleries and museums including the UN and the Canson Prix 2011, where her drawings were presented at the Louvre. Her drawing and painting work is held in the collection of Chase Private Client, The Newbury Hotel, SOHO House NY, and numerous private collections. Veronica is on the faculty of Parsons School of Design, Pratt Institute, and the Woodstock School of Art.

My paintings evoke the energetic forces of both the wild spaces of nature and the human-made environments of the urban landscape. I am particularly drawn to spaces where nature and human history intersect, leaving echoes of the cycles of life behind. My painted surfaces mirror these cycles of renewal; layered, scratched, printed and collaged into palimpsests of experience. The paintings are meditations on memory and material transformation, and a hopeful symbol of resilience.
