Conversation with Artist Dòri Varga - Part 1

Loren Lewis Cole

Dòri Varga is an interdisciplinary artist who is as deeply sensual as she is intelligent. She has a mind sharp as a razor and an appetite for the edge, which she explores with hunger and courage in her work through her instantly recognisable page Blood of Aurora as well as her work as a solo and collaborative artist. 

Dòri truly has died many artistic and personal deaths in the time I've been following her work, which is about a decade. This woman is sharp and deep and sexy and funny and just has a MASSIVE aura that I know you're going to love. Throughout all of her themes and explorations, the nucleus has been exploring the often hidden experiences of women who birth, bleed, renew, create. Dòri has a distinct artistic signature that pervades everything she does from her exquisite writings and poetry to her sensual self portraits, her explorations of childbirth and sexuality. This woman is here to fully feel and that's expressed in everything she does.

Our conversation was 3.5 hours and goes far and wide. We discuss the courage of being an artist, how this is truly our time as society is crumbling, as it always does, mothering as an artist and getting deep into creative zones whilst being in a family and the challenges of switching states, sexual intimacy, getting into THE ZONE, authenticity, female relationships and so much more.
