Revue Collé:

"The female figure takes center stage in the collages of Eva Lake, mysterious, historical, and rooted in pop culture all at once. An underground, multidisciplinary artist, Lake has long sidestepped the commercial art world, approaching her work instead with a fierce punk sensibility. A staple of the collage community for decades, her evolving body of work is a testament to her enduring vision. It’s a joy to witness the trajectory of her practice over time." (2025)
 

Collector Daily:

"In an age where software-based image manipulation has become so easy, it’s intriguing to see meticulous physical photocollage continue to be an active vehicle for so many contemporary artists. Lake’s approach feels centered in strength and confidence, and that consistent positivity leads to a collective sense of uplift. And while Lake’s collages don’t bite as hard as others that are more overtly critiquing the legacies of the male gaze, they still have a place in the larger dialogue, particularly as examples of women seeing women with buoyancy and complexity."

Lovelake was the name of a tiny alternative exhibition space I directed 2002 - 2004 in NW Portland.
