Lola Svetlova

Lola Svetlova is a contemporary artist and illustrator whose work merges fine art embroidery, mixed media, and storytelling. With a background in illustration, she pushes the boundaries of traditional textile art, transforming delicate threads and layered fabrics into tactile, evocative compositions. Her pieces are deeply narrative, often exploring themes of social issues, psychology, and human connection through a dreamlike, symbolic lens.

Each artwork is meticulously hand-stitched, combining intricate textures with painterly composition. By blending embroidery with modern artistic techniques, she creates immersive, collectible pieces that bridge fine art and craft, intimacy and grandeur.

Svetlova’s approach is both deeply personal and universal—each stitch a meditation on nostalgia, displacement, and the search for belonging. Whether through the warmth of textiles or the precision of line, she invites viewers to step into a world where stories unfold not just in words, but in texture and form.
