Lydia Moore is a nonbinary queer artist based in Baltimore, MD. During the COVID-19 pandemic, they decided to switch careers from accounting to studying art and art therapy. Within Moore’s work, they love to poke fun at serious subjects, such as sex and love, feminism, fatphobia, religion, and mental illness. When creating a collage, they most often start with the source materials. Searching through used bookstores for vintage gems is the beginning of a great collage. Then, Moore pieces together words, themes, and emotions that contribute generously to their cut pieces.
