Lava Thomas Studio Details
Lava Thomas tackles issues of race, gender, representation and memorialization through a multidisciplinary practice that spans drawing, painting, photography, sculpture, and site-specific installations. Drawing from her family's Southern roots, current and historical socio-political events, intersectional feminism and African American protest and devotional traditions, Thomas's practice centers ideas that amplify visibility, healing, and empowerment in the face of erasure, trauma and oppression. Born in Los Angeles, CA, she studied at UCLA's School of Art Practice and received a BFA from California College of the Arts. Thomas is a recipient of the 2021 Academy of Arts and Letters Purchase Prize, the 2020 San Francisco Artadia Award and a 2019-2021 Lucas Artists Fellowship Award at Montalvo Arts Center. Thomas has participated in artist residencies at Facebook Los Angeles (2020), Headlands Center for the Arts (2018), and the Djerassi Resident Artist Program. In 2015, she received the Joan Mitchell Grant for Painters and Sculptors.
