Identity is a thought-provoking topic to ponder. Personally, I have dedicated years to exploring different facets of my 'self,' and I imagine you have done the same. We are all complex beings, some of us appear fully realised in the form we present to the world, while others have days when it's challenging to feel a genuine connection to our own names (myself included). Nevertheless, I will center myself and embrace 'Who I Am' so I can share with you.

My name is Lola, and I am an artist. What has been included in my package of ‘being an artist’ is a generous helping of self-reflection and an enduring fascination with the mysteries of existence. Understanding Who I Am and the reasons behind my actions, emotions, and reactions has been a lifelong pursuit. Creative expression has proven to be an invaluable and sometimes life-saving tool for processing my inquiries, thoughts, feelings, and behaviours.

ALL HAIL THE SYSTEMS!

I am consistently excited to learn new perspectives on the human experience. In my quest to unravel 'Who Am I?' and 'Who Are You?' I have explored various ‘systems’ that offer insights into ourselves and our relationships. Psychology, Folklore, Astrology, Archetypes, Numerology, Mythology, Tarot, Human Design, and Gene Keys have broadened my awareness and deepened my understanding of myself and others.

Each of us encounters several significant themes throughout our lives. While these themes are universal, their presence and impact vary individually. Some of the themes that resonate with me revolve around self-worth, forgiveness, dislocation, balance, and purpose. Purpose, in particular, holds great significance for many of us. You may relate to the longing for a sense of meaning.
