black & Lesbian

self portraiture artist

Whorlasmz is a Black and Lesbian multimedia self portraiture artist and illustrator. Their work consists of drawing, painting and sculpture as their primary practice. Their personal relationship with Blackness and Queerness addresses themes of identity and sexuality within the repetition of figures resembling themself. The works represent the artist's own identity and desire to be seen and exist proudly within the art world and the world in which they live.

Orla O Boyle, known professionally as Whorlasmz (b. 1997) lives and works in Dublin, Ireland.
