hi, hello, bonjour
Laura Fisher is an interdisciplinary artist who incorporates drawing, lens-based media, and textiles to explore contemporary issues of identity, displacement, and ecologies of war. Through her work, she weaves together the threads of lesser-told stories in order to reposition history toward a more dialectical, human-centered standpoint, questioning the implications of figurative memory and deconstructing the ripples of intergenerational trauma. Text and language are employed in Laura’s work as a means of visual poetry, and to amplify often underrepresented lived experiences.
Laura holds a B.F.A. in fine arts/photography from the University of Cincinnati, a certificate in drawing from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and an M.F.A. in drawing from Paris College of Art. Her work has been exhibited throughout the U.S. and Europe. She currently lives and works in Paris, where she happily occupies a studio at Les Arches Citoyennes in the 4ème arrondissement.
Her current work, LA MER À BOIRE, is a series of large-scale embroidered dye sublimation prints on textile. Incorporating survivor testimony from the 2021 English Channel Disaster, these works explore the broader sociopolitical context which underpins contemporary issues of migration. These works will be displayed in an upcoming solo show in Paris, France in March 2025 and a group exhibition in Leeds, England in May 2025.
