Karla de Lara

Karla de Lara is adamant about using art to express her reality, emotions, encounters and everyday experiences.

She owns the highest international profile than any Mexican artist with more than 300 individual exhibitions in 37 countries worldwide. She is an artist eager to continually explore uncharted artistic worlds without stylistic boundaries or technical limitations. In other words, she operates free from creative constraints. Her personality often pits her against convention. She adapts and readapts her techniques to better express her ideals and the realities of her everyday life.

Karla de Lara is recognized today as the mother of hyperrealistic pop art. The themes she expresses within this genre are exaggerated versions of hyperpop inspired by the entertainment industry and infused with references to the collective imagination that distort them in a way that flirts with realism without bowing to its limitations.
