LAUREN NAPOLITANO

Based out of Austin and a prolific member of Oakland’s resident art scene since 2010, Lauren’s work takes form around the central theme of myth. Lauren’s linear work adorns whatever surface it finds itself on with a sense of mystery and harmony in terms of symbolism and narrative. Her paintings chart celestial bodies’ movement while referencing our physical connection with our own Earth.

“I am obsessed with this idea of a story and how objects tell a story of where they have been. Your hands can tell everyone around you how much you use them, how often you’re outside, if you like to work on cars, or if you’re a tense nail-biter. I like to see how much you can tell about a person without them ever speaking a word. I’m a traveling mixed media artist creating anything out of everything.”
