My name is Lorena and I was born in Quito (Ecuador). My mother is from Chile and my dad is Dutch. I grew up in Quito and when I was 9 years we moved to Holland.
I studied photography at the Royal academy of Art in The Hague and now I work as a freelance photographer/artist. I mostly do autonomous projects, exhibit my work at exhibitions and I also sell my work! (photography)
I love to travel and learn new cultures. I have traveled quit a bit in south-east Asia and in South America. Best experience definitely my two month trip to Cali (Colombia) last year, while doing an artist in residence! And Laos and Vietnam.
