Clara-Lane Lens is a Belgian painter, so far particularly known for focussing on portraits of androgynous [1] personas. [2] At the age of 17, she had a first solo exhibition in Brussels (BE). [3] Genderless, [4] the theme of that expo stays the inspiration for most of her works upon today. [5]
Astrid Verreycken [6] in 254Forest: [7] "Clara-Lane Lens paints using a classic imagery. Her works veers between the directness of a quick snapshot and an extensive study of the human body. All figures share something similar, beautiful but introvert. They are inward-looking, lost in thought. But there is also a kind of physical absence. She deliberately omits the characteristics that could reveal a character's gender. Spectators are regularly misled, yet precisely that's the attraction in her work. As you are left with the sense that something has eluded you."
Clara-Lane Lens currently lives and works at her atelier in Berlin (DE). [8]
Clara-Lane Lens was born in Brussels (BE). She did study at Luca, School of Arts, [9] Ghent (BE). From 2019 on, immediately after obtaining her master's degree in the Arts, [10] she moved to live and work in Berlin (DE).
