About the Artist
Lola Lazaro Hinks (b.1990 in London) is a London-based artist and designer. She makes sculptural work in glass; trained as a photographer, the use of optics runs as a seed throughout the work. Characterised by layered, constructed and multi-element forms that draw from the photographic; using lensing, the space between focal lengths, apertures, polished and transparent glass, dark spaces and opacity to entangle vision with concealment. She is deeply interested in the material qualities of glass, of transparency and opacity, to explore themes of visibility, power and attention.
She received her Masters in Ceramics and Glass from the Royal College of Art in 2018 and her Bachelors in Fine Art Photography from the Arts University Bournemouth in 2012.
