Lava Thomas

Whether illuminating the under acknowledged leadership and labor of women in the struggle for civil rights, creating memorials to victims of racial violence, or stretching the conventions of portraiture and representation, Lava Thomas’s multi disciplinary practice centers notions of visibility, resilience and empowerment in the face of erasure, trauma and oppression.
