About Zahyr Lauren | The Artist L.Haz
The Story
Zahyr Lauren (they/them), also known as The Artist L.Haz, is a West Coast-based artist, writer, former human rights investigator, and former attorney. L.Haz began drawing in 2015 after the surmounting stress of being an attorney resulted in a lost ability to walk. The work has become a consistent and trustworthy mental and emotional salve, helping the artist transform stories of struggle, pain, and oppression, into images of solidarity, triumph, and healing. Their practice aims to transform trauma, so as not to transmit it. The youngest of four siblings, L.Haz comes from a powerful, Black southern matriarchy that migrated from Oklahoma and Mississippi to California with nothing, and made something for generations to come. L.Haz hopes the work engulfs audiences in the meditative processes experienced within their practice.
