Tina Lugo is an artist who explores the subversive and controversial qualities in pop culture through her glass paintings. Her work is influenced by the Ero Guru Nansensu art movement of Japan, which focuses on eroticism, sexual corruption, and decadence. Lugo's paintings often have complex compositions that ease viewers into the sexual nature of her pieces. She obtained her BFA from the School of Visual Arts and currently lives in Portland, Oregon.
