lynora valdez is an artist currently based in Los Angeles. she is interested in capturing nostalgic and classic architecture and signage through the presence of dramatic light.

in photographing neon signs, old motels, and random neighborhoods, she's romanticizing the American Dream.

her more personal photography aims to trigger feelings of anxiety and loss. the use of abstract light and obstruction of subjects show the dynamics of parent-child relationships and their decay over time.
