Laura Cruikshank's work is informed by the overlapping rhythms
of observing, drawing, gathering details and intuitive making.
Compositions are slowly and playfully arranged and rearranged
amongst an ever-growing library of abstracted forms, textures,
and the study of subtle movement.
Each work embodies the time and enjoyment imbued by the
making process with the aim to inspire curiosity for the act of
paying attention to the rich and ever-changing natural
environment which surrounds us.
