Once Upon A Pandemic
How it all began. In the midst of a global pandemic; when nations around the world faced a global shut down, and streets filled with protestors, Lola found refuge in a corner room on the 3rd floor of her home, like Alice in Wonderland she ventured into a Time Capsule obsessed with creating mini replica like rooms found in royal castles from another time and place. “Rooms” became an obsession, for 2 years she disappeared into her time capsule of creation, using whatever mediums and supplies she could find in her closets, drawers, and often even the trash.
Lola found art, and created a visual odyssey.
" I believe art unites us a one. My hope for “ Timelines “ is to wake up the whimsical, magical creativity in everyone.Combining cinematic story telling and art creates an undeniable experience.”
