UPCOMING EVENTS
artist SHOWCASE: "wake me where I lay"
MEET THE ARTIST & VIEW THE LIMITED-TIME SHOWCASE
September 27th 6-9pm
Lauren
Pearce
is
a
self-taught
mixed
media
figurative
artist
raised
in
South
Florida
and
currently based in
Cleveland,
Ohio.
Her
work
is
a
vibrant
exploration
of
identity,
rooted
deeply
in
her
Jamaican
heritage
and
the
transformative
power
of
nature.
Drawing
inspiration
from
the
natural
world
and
her
personal
journey
of
“unmasking,”
Pearce
creates layered,
narrative-rich
pieces
that
invite
viewers
into
intimate,
imagined
worlds.
Each
work
is
a
meditation on
what
it
means
to
be
fully
oneself—vulnerable,
evolving,
and
connected
to
the
earth.
Nature
is
not
just
a
backdrop
in
her
art;
it
is
a
collaborator,
a
mirror,
and
a
guide.
With
intricate
detail
and
bold
composition,
Pearce’s
art
tells
stories
meant
to
transport.
Her
goal
is
for
each
piece
to
feel
like
a
journey—one
where
viewers
can
lose
themselves
in
the
textures,
symbols,
and
emotional
depth
of
her
work.
