British Ceramics Biennial Fresh Talent Residency 2021
Making in her hometown of Stoke-on-Trent, Laura draws from the creative heritage and ambition of the pioneering potters who made the city famous. Enabled by this residency to delve deeper, she seeks to echo the grandeur she has long admired. Laura is reimagining iconic forms, stripping back the decoration to reveal contemporary designs.
Exploring the identity and culture of place, she references Stoke’s past present and future, through the Spode Site where the residency was hosted.
