Illustrations by Lauren Marx

Lauren Marx born 1991 is a St. Louis based artist and illustrator who is a graduate from Webster University.

Animals always have been, and always will be, my passion. They have been the subjects of my drawings ever since I was a child.

I have developed a symbolic cosmology where mammals represent nebulae, birds are the stars formed within the nebulae, and insects are the elements (or “dust”) created from exploding stars. My hope is that this symbolic representation allows the viewer to see these phenomena as a complete picture of an interacting Universe. Using these animals and insects, I am going to make my own “creation” myth of the Cosmos to parody current and past creation myths which are strongly reliant upon animals, to show how humans attempt to understand the epic intricacy of the Universe.
