Isabella K. Losskarn

Asheville, NC

Isabella Losskarn is an emerging visual artist currently based in Asheville, North Carolina. She received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Drawing, as well as a Bachelor of Art History in December 2021 from the University of North Carolina at Asheville.



Using soft pastels, Losskarn’s work encompasses a wide variety of strangely manipulated pop-culture subject matter, rendered with detail and color which pushes the boundaries of hyperrealism. This manipulation of pop-culture objects appears consistently in Losskarn’s work, purposeful and jarring; she mimics the ways in which popular culture distorts perceptions of gender.



Rooted heavily in the regular study of gender-based research, the artist’s studio practice pulls from personal and anonymous gendered experiences in an effort to address a specific absurdity— the circumstances and consequences of the overwhelming presence of gendered stereotypes, ideas and imagery in our daily life.
