ABOUT
Lara Adriolo is currently a third year student of Image + Media Technology at the HKU University of the Arts in Utrecht, The Netherlands. She writes, designs and experiments her way through her twenties with the anarchic heart-fire of an adolescent gnat that was struck by lightning. Growing up in rural Limburg during the mid 2000's with the PlayStation 1, early internet access and a substantial amount of undiagnosed neurodivergence, Lara developed a deep appreciation for cult media from the 90's and 2000's, everything loud and ugly really. Her work is often firmly rooted in the aesthetics of her childhood whilst blending with the modern (solar-)punk influences of her current art school environment.
Lara is always looking for young, noisy, experimental artists to hang out and collaborate with!
