Lorena Martell

"My work focuses on creating characters with deformed features that reflect despair and suffering, witches and monsters. The world hidden from our mortal eyes. The terrifying, the strange, fears and death. My main inspirations are horror movies, gothic culture and body horror."

I completed my studies at Instituto Potosino de Bellas Artes, at Escuela Estatal de Artes Plásticas and Centro de las Artes Bicentenario.

I participated with images in the storybook "SINIESTRO" by Violeta Garcia, Clara Beter publishing house, Buenos Aires, Argentina and Montevideo, Uruguay.

In 2020 I won first place in the festival's horror photography contest: Terrifyingly Short, in Palencia, Spain with his photography "Tres Brujas".

In 2021 the cult and horror magazine "Rue Morgue" published an article about my work and career, alongside to the participation I had in the exhibition "TRANSMUTATIONS" Witches, Healers and Oracles" at the Buckland Museum of Witchcraft & Magic in Cleveland, Ohio.

I won the Photo3 prize in the horror photography contest with work that is part of the photographic exhibition at the Lecrác cultural center, in Palencia, Spain.

In 2022 I held the individual exhibition "The New Flesh" at the Centro de las Artes Bicentenario, in San Luis Potosi, Mexico.
