ART BY LENA GORAL

LENA

Lena Goral is a Dark Artist from Northern Germany.

She was born in 1988 in the cityof Kiel. It is said that many ghost stories are created in regions with bad weather, and although she cannot confirm that, she has her suspicions. The stormy, rainy and often foggy region of Schleswig-Holstein with its rough sea and eerie bogs has a big influence on her work. For a long time, she kept her stories and illustrations to herself, just telling them to the trees and tombstones on her walks.

In 2020, Lena graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree at the art and design department of the BTK Hochschule für Gestaltung at Hamburg and that was when she started to work as an illustrator and graphic designer.

Her love for ghost stories and thrillers accompanied her since she  did her firstattempts at drawing in childhood. The darker side of human nature, an interest in everything paranormal as well as the grotesque beauty of death and decay, are her muses. They lead her into a world which is often disturbing to her, but necessary to call her refuge.
