Lauren Ashleigh is a multidisciplinary artist who holds a BFA in Studio Art, obtained in 2015. Her work is distinguished by the integration of sculptural and organic elements into her paintings, employing materials such as glass, joint compound, acrylic mediums, and found objects to add depth and dimension.

In 2016, Lauren's life was profoundly altered by new mental illness diagnoses, an experience that deeply influenced her creative practice. This turning point marked the emergence of a new passion, as her art became a conduit for exploring identity, deconstruction, coping mechanisms, and the complexities of specific traumas. Her work invites viewers to engage with difficult topics, fostering a connection that resonates on an emotional and intellectual level.

Today, Lauren continues to push the boundaries of innovation, experimenting with texture, color, and movement to tell compelling stories. Whether working in her studio or on the walls of Ohio, or teaching art to others, she remains committed to creating art that is as evocative as it is unique. Creating beauty from the rubble.
