Biography
Lorena Torres’ practice is deeply rooted in her upbringing on Colombia’s Caribbean coast. Her paintings are a celebration of the culutre, landscape and vernacular of the local environment. Laden with symbolism and a poetic sensibility, Torres’ work verges on the surreal. Taking inspiration from the traditions of magical realism, the artist embeds her figures within their environments, reflecting her own connections to her subject matter and heritage.
Born in 1991 in Barranquilla, Colombia, Torres received a BFA in Visual Arts from Pontificia Universidad Javeriana, Bogotá in 2016. Her work has been exhibited in the United Kingdom, the United States and Colombia, among others. Torres has completed residencies in Bogotá, Miami and most recently at Casa Santa Ana, Panama City.
