Lorna Barimi is an Albanian American artist living and working in Cleveland, Ohio.

She’s obsessed with emotion.

She stands for the liberation of the self from the conditioned preconception of what one’s emotional experience should be. She believes in the necessity of acknowledging the totality of one’s emotional experience, especially the parts that are disowned and disavowed. The socially unacceptable emotions that are subjected to the recesses of the subconscious, only to fester and come out through covert back doors.
