Mentored in journalism and radio journalism while completing her English Literature and history degree, at Montana State University in Bozeman, Montana, USA, she had been writing for the local newspaper and contributing art articles and book reviews as freelancer for the area magazines. Following the suggestion of a literature professor she started to take art courses, her passion being art since the age of 5. Studying printmaking and drawing lead to experimental art and alternative photography methods allowing her to create unique pieces combining such different practices. Lara started to exhibit in group shows internationally in 2016. Her work has been exhibited in New York , Melbourne, Australia, with the Los Angeles printmakers and at the Arsenale in Venice, Italy, in 2019 during a printmaking residency at the Scuola Grafica in Venice. Some of her work has appeared in publications like the MidAmerican Print Council and the Australian Print Council magazine and two history books based in Montana, Usa. “ I’m a wall and floor freak, I’m enchanted by all the beaten walls and surfaces I have lived on and around.” She likes to build and distress surfaces to create layered patinas that hold the emotion and memory of various environments or even the music and the iconic cinematography she is inspired by.
