Rooted in craft, Lara’s work explores the dualities and liminal selves common to an immigrant upbringing. She aims to explore the worlds of possibility that exist within and between the simplicity of line.
Her process is largely spontaneous, allowing unconscious symbols to surface through play. Once uncovered, these symbols are honed using intricate and skilful craft. The resulting works range from drawings and papercuts to ceramics and stained glass windows. Lara can also be found at Proyecto Isla and Shedding.
