Cynthia Lahti
Cynthia Lahti creates artworks that are visually alluring and beautiful, including their overt imperfections and sometimes-humble materials. Inspired by objects and images, both historical and contemporary, her creations reflect her belief that even the smallest artifact can evoke powerful feelings. Her art practice, which encompasses drawing, collage, altered books and sculpture, is influenced by human artifacts from ancient times to the present, as well as by personal experiences and emotions.
Cynthia earned her bachelor’s degree at the Rhode Island School of Design. In 2013, she was awarded the Hallie Ford Fellowship for artists, the Bonnie Bronson Fellowship in 2015, the Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Individual Support Grant in 2017.
