Lara de Moor
At its core, making a work of art may only be about catching those tiny particles of luminous truth one may sometimes encounter in daily life.

Behind every painting by Lara de Moor (1969, the Netherlands) hides another illusionary world. The polysemity of her work leads to an intriguing viewing experience. De Moor has honed her craft to perfection, which is why you believe what you’re shown without question. She is a master at painting foggy windows and transparent net curtains. Her work is marked by great evocative power, due primarily to her image’s nature; whether the subject is a forest, a pond in a park or a dress hanging in front of a curtain, an inner tension can always be felt.
