Bold and vulnerable, Marta Lamovsek work is a juxtaposition of aesthetics, a collage of race and culture. Marta elevates the beauty and the personal story of a stranger, creating eccentric images with a powerful fictional story, transforming them into “Icons”.
Each individual brings personality to the surface with a touch of kitsch, in the use of the materials and textures. Her signature collections: Iconbooth and Plastic Garden, are a clear example of her perception and curiosity for strangers.
