Biography / Artist statement

Laura is an analogue collage artist on a mission to reimagine the past and infuse it with the vibrant energy of the present by saving forgotten, old papers and give them the spotlight they deserve. The discarded books & magazines she works with are her muse and an endless source of inspiration fueling her practice. With Laura's collages she celebrates beauty in the unexpected: those delicate papers that have somehow survived years of neglect in attics and basements, just waiting for their chance to shine again. Her love for recycling these old materials doesn't stop at her own practice - she's passionate about inspiring others to unlock their creative potential and change peoples perception on these so-called ‘waste’ materials which she does at her vintage collage workshops, hosted for organizations like Kew Gardens, Porsche, The Natural History Museum, Pinterest and many others.
