In the 1980s Lilo Raymond was teaching at the School of Visual Arts in New York, having taught at the Maine Photographic Workshop during the summer of 1979, and at the International Center of Photography later that year.

1989The photographs of pillows and sheets, in their simplicity, in their highly nuanced distribution of whites and grays, are intensely atmospheric, and in their frail, understand linear boundaries they manifest a graphic certainty, which they share with other Lilo Raymond photographs. Light does not call attention to objects in her photographs so much as objects provide surfaces over which and upon which light performs. And whether it is the revealing light of morning, where the beached illusions of the night are encountered, or the cleansing light of noon, which shines upon the neat authority of an isolated utensil or upon the fastidious arrangement of fruit on a table, it is always limpid. Lilo Raymond worked in 35mm, producing silver prints.
Lilo Raymond studied with David Vestal from 1961 to 1963.
