Lorette C. Luzajic is an award-winning mixed media artist from Canada. Her work is driven by eclectic curiosity and the joy of juxtaposition, exploring the whole world with irreverence and an eye for beauty. She takes inspiration from art history, literature, uncanny objects, cinema, culture, and personal experiences, mining everything she sees for possibilities. Her work has been widely exhibited at home and around the world. It has been used on two textbook covers, served as set props in film and television, blown up on a billboard in New Orleans, displayed at the Royal Ontario Museum, purchased for the collection at the Union Hotel in Toronto, and chosen for an ad campaign for a Madrid-based diamond company. Lorette represented Canada at an art symposium in North Africa. She has been a juror for the City of Barrie Art Awards, and thrice for the international Boyne’s Art competition. She is also a widely published writer, and founding editor of The Ekphrastic Review, the flagship journal of literature inspired by visual art. She teaches creative writing and art history through The Ekphrastic Academy and around the world on Zoom, and mixed media art to people living with mental illness. She has art collectors in forty countries so far. Lorette is an addiction and cancer survivor. Visit her at www.mixedupmedia.ca.
