At the core of her work lies an exploration of the human silhouette in its abstract form—each silhouette tells a story, symbolizing a chapter, a relationship, or a moment frozen in time. Inspired by themes of memory, identity, and the interplay between relationships and human experience, Lara draws from both personal introspection and cultural influences.
Over the years, Lara has experimented with a wide range of materials, pursuing a vision that blurs the boundaries between painting and sculpture. Sand is the central element of her art, allowing her to create sculpted works that continuously interact with light, color, and depth, offering an ever-evolving visual experience.
When it comes to inspiration, art has heightened Lara’s awareness of her surroundings, teaching her to perceive the world with fresh eyes. She finds beauty in the overlooked—in the play of shadows, in the organic patterns of nature, in the subtle details that often go unnoticed. This ability to rediscover the world with a childlike curiosity fuels her creative process.
Lara’s multicultural background has profoundly shaped her artistic perspective. Growing up between different cultures and traveling extensively from an early age have given her access to a vast array of artistic influences, materials, and creative horizons, all of which continue to inspire and enrich her work.
ABOUT
THE ARTIST
Lara Youssef Nabawy is a German-Egyptian artist based in Geneva, Switzerland.
Her artistic journey started intuitively at a young age, as she has always been fascinated by the powerful impact of an art piece in a space. As a self-taught artist, she naturally gravitated towards painting and drawing, exploring various techniques over the years.
Her passion for art was further enriched by her studies in art history and interior design, immersing her in different dimensions of the creative world. In 2022, she took the leap to dedicate herself entirely to her art, becoming a full-time artist.
Lara’s work has been exhibited in galleries and art fairs across multiple cities, including Geneva (Switzerland), Milan (Italy), Paris (France), and Madrid (Spain), gaining recognition for her unique artistic approach.
Held in private collections, Lara's work is also installed across Switzerland, France, United States, Italy, Saudia Arabia & Mexico.
