LORRAINE SNAPE
London, UK
PROFILE
I have been involved in a range of group exhibitions, solo shows and open studios. My work has been the backdrop to prime time TV shows and appeared in lifestyle magazines. I have shown in a church on the Kings Road and an old Yardley Perfume factory. The paintings I sold to London’s Corn Exchange replaced those of Damien Hirst in their entrance lobby. After graduating with BA (Hons) Fine Art from Chelsea School of Art (UAL), I took on a studio and continued my practice, alongside running the record label and music publishing company I had set up with my partner. In 2019 I decided to return to study. I became a member of altMFA, a peer led, alternative art school, and was later accepted onto the MA Fine Art course at Chelsea.
