Lorena Torres (b. 1991, Barranquilla), lives and works in Bogotá. Using her family memories, the artist represents scenes from the Colombian countryside, constructing narratives of a magical quality. Lorena imparts upon the viewer representations of an intimate collective history through romantically lush vegetation and languid figures trapped in the hazy slow motion of a Southern dream.
Lorena holds a BFA in Visual Arts from the Pontificia Universidad Javeriana in Bogotá. Her works have been exhibited in different spaces such as: SGR Galería, Galería Subtítulo, and El Parche in Bogotá, Colombia; Pablo’s Birthday and Thierry Goldberg in New York, USA, among others.
