In residency at the Maison Flottante in September 2025.
Laura lives and works in Paris. A multidisciplinary artist and textile craftswoman, she graduated from the Arts Décoratifs de Paris in 2022. Trained by master dyers and weavers in France, Japan and Taiwan, she explores the interdependent links between humans and their environment. Through the gestures of weaving, materials and places, she questions the notion of “milieu” as an interweaving of collective, symbolic and sensitive interactions. Supported by the DRAC Hauts-de-France and Taiwan’s National Culture and Arts Foundation, her research has been presented at residencies and exhibitions in France, the Netherlands and Taiwan.
Oscillating between contemporary and ancestral techniques, her practice unfolds through drawing, sculpture, textiles, installation and performance. Observing the evolution of plants, collecting fibers, questioning the use of the body as a tool, manipulating dye baths by fermentation and revealing the colors generated by the sun’s rays: it is from these experiences, and all that they engage within an environment - notably in the relationship they maintain with a given space and its inhabitants - that her artistic approach is built. Everything in the space, no matter how small, has its own importance and role to play. In her quest for fragile equilibrium, Laura brings together seemingly distant elements, matching or confronting them in games of assembly and transformation.
