About / CV
Dasha Lazo (b. 1992) is a London-based visual artist and photographer whose practice explores body politics, womanhood, identity, mental health and nostalgia, often drawing on personal and collective lived experiences.
Working primarily with analogue photography and moving image, she also incorporates sculpture and alternative photographic processes. Her background in film informs her approach to storytelling and the relationship between still and moving images.
She holds an MA in Photography from London College of Communication, University of the Arts London (2021). Her work has been exhibited and published internationally. She is also the founder of EMBODIED, a curatorial space dedicated to exploring the body, identity and lived experience through photography and visual art.
