Lorie Ballage (b.1994, Paris) holds a BFA from the Art Academy of Dundee, Scotland and a MFA from the Art Academy of Bergen, Norway, where she currently resides. She is the co-founder of Cone 7.

On the drifts of a journey around the unfeasible, useless gestures and failures to come, the work of Lorie Ballage is a dedication to tragedy as a grand ideological narrative.
Her works can be perceived as utopian errors aiming to represent the potentialities of failure - thrills which results from unfortunate events, loss of control and uncertainty. The error has an inherent aura of resistance in which resides the nuances, the mistakes, the flaws, all the things that define us as individuals.
