“On top of a blossoming music career, artist Lana Eileen has nurtured a practice that embraces mythological and psychical themes using photography and mixed media. Describing her works as possessing “an air of magic realism”, she has undergone residencies in Egypt, Iceland and the Arctic Circle to further her ability to make physical the intangible and unfamiliar.”— Art/Edit Magazine
Lana Eileen is an Irish-Australian artist and musician. Her multidisciplinary practice encompasses painting, textiles, photography, sculpture, and drawing. In 2019, she undertook an artist residency at The Creative Centre in the remote village of Stöðvarfjörður in Iceland, and was later an artist-in-residence at Gamli Skóli Artist Residency on the island of Hrísey in 2021. She also lived in Kraków, Poland, and travelled to both Egypt and Canada to deepen her creative practice across 2022.
