Mutual Power: Structure, 2026, 24"x30", Acrylic on Canvas
This painting explores power as a shared and evolving structure. A central female figure, formed from a banyan tree, generates the architectural system surrounding her, while other figures respond, extend, and transmit that energy outward. Rather than depicting dominance, the work considers how agency can originate in one body and move through others, becoming collaborative and transformative.
The Room of Uneven Light, 2026, 48"x36", Acrylic on Canvas
In The Room of Uneven Light, Lazarus stages an interior as a psychological field in which perception, desire, and authority are constantly renegotiated. Divided into zones of color and space, the composition juxtaposes moments of intimacy, performance, and reflection, suggesting that relationships are shaped as much by what is seen as by what is withheld.
Love Me / Fuck Me, 2025, Mixed media on canvas, 36"x36"
In this layered mixed-media work, Lazarus explores the relationship between emotional intimacy and physical desire through collage, overpainting, and fragmented language. The central palm form merges landscape and body, suggesting how attraction is both naturalized and constructed. By reversing part of the text, the artist disrupts legibility and prompts reflection on how visibility, power, and interpretation mediate our understanding of love and desire.
Creation, 2025, Gouache on Watercolor Paper, 13" x 19"
The tree functions simultaneously as architecture and metaphor: a living framework that splits the world into opposing fields. Within this structure, two racially differentiated figures stand in interdependence—one rendered in light, the other in shadow—making difference.
Female Sunset, 2024, Gouache on Watercolor Paper, 13" x 19"
Through a double reading of positive and negative space, Lazarus configures two trees into the contour of a female torso that encloses an ocean sunset, producing a reversible image in which body and landscape oscillate between interior and exterior, visibility and concealment.
Current Works
In her current work, Lazarus investigates how language, desire, and perception structure intimacy and social relations. Recent paintings extend this inquiry toward questions of hierarchy, partnership, and shared power through architectural frameworks, fragmentation, and reversible imagery.

The tree functions simultaneously as architecture and metaphor: a living framework that splits the world into opposing fields. Within this structure, two racially differentiated figures stand in interdependence—one rendered in light, the other in shadow—making difference itself a structural and visual force. Lazarus suggests that meaning, like growth, emerges through division, relation, and the continual negotiation between contrast and connection.
