Ola Lanko studeerde sociologie aan de National University in Kiev, fotografie aan de Koninklijke Academie van Beeldende Kunsten in Den Haag en Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam. In 2012 studeerde ze af aan de fotografie-afdeling van de Gerrit Rietveld Academie.
Lanko gebruikt een systematische en analytische manier van denken, samen met een speelse beeldtaal als haar methode om met fotografie te werken en het te verkennen als artistiek medium. Ze beargumenteert dat we het meeste halen uit de visuele informatie die ons omringt door een kwalitatieve benadering van het proces van kijken te ontwikkelen, een kritische houding tegenover beelden te hebben en bewust te zijn van de plaats die fotografie in ons leven inneemt.

Over de kunstenaar
Ola Lanko en haar fotogenic installaties
Ola Lanko is altijd bezig met de werking van het medium fotografie. De kritische blik van de beschouwer is wat ze met haar werk wil overbrengen
New Dawn Paper
About image-froming
With her work Ola would like to make us aware of the importance and danger of image–forming, especially in a moment of time where everybody (for instance with their cell phones) is a co–creator of a directed representation of the world, that is often presented as reality.
New Window Radio
Kunst als oefenruimte
Voor Ola Lanko is het simpel: kunst is geen luxe, maar bittere noodzaak. Het zorgt ervoor dat mensen vanzelfsprekendheden gaan bevragen, biedt ruimte om vrij en kritisch te denken, en activeert het verbeeldingsvermogen. In het kijken naar kunst, concludeert Ola, wordt een mens weer mens.

Voor haar afstudeerproject ontving Ola Lanko het Steenbergen Stipendium, een erkende jaarlijkse prijs voor fotografie-afgestudeerden. In 2013 ontving ze de New Talent Photography award. Sinds 2010 neemt Lanko constant deel aan verschillende tentoonstellingen en werkt ze aan haar projecten. Haar werk werd getoond in tal van kunstinstellingen zoals FOAM, het Nederlands Fotomuseum en het Musée de l'Elysée. In 2015 was ze artist in residence bij het WILES Contemporary Art Centre in Brussel. Naast haar artistieke praktijk doceert Ola fotografie aan de Koninklijke Academie van Beeldende Kunsten in Den Haag en is gastdocent op verschillende academies in Nederland en België.
