Laura Porter is a South West based sculpture and installation artist, and is the director and curator of artist-led gallery Studio KIND. Inspired by man-made structures in states of flux, Laura's work deals with themes of development and decay, the dual presence of which forms a critique of productivity against the backdrop of a growing, global eco-consciousness. Just as increased productivity erodes the very resources upon which it relies, the repetitive processes in her practice abrade the materials within the works calling into question the recycled systems that humankind perpetually develops in the pursuit of progress.
