A Visual history rooted in the Midwest

Meet Laura

I have always enjoyed learning new mediums and techniques, but I immediately fell in love with the physical and tactile quality of working with clay.  Six years ago, I started to better understand my fondness of the Midwest while cleaning out my grandmother’s house.  I loved the aesthetic of her rustic, Midwestern influenced everyday objects and they became a big influence in my work.  I am always trying to mine that visual history.
