Laura is an artist who investigates inner landscapes, often through the body.

She has worked in various mediums throughout her career, beginning in dance and moving into visual art and interiors. She spent a decade at New York’s premier theater for dance, first as a curator and producer, then marketer. In programming, she focused in particular on fostering the develpment of our next generation of choreographers, as well as cultural diplomacy, bringing American artists to Cuba and Cuban artists to the U.S.

Her first exhibition of photographs, which focused on Cuban dancers is an extension of that work. It Won’t Be This Way Forever—ran at Opus 40 from Aug 11-Sep 30, 2022.

In a long-term experiment exploring trust, technology, and community, a diptych of photographs in the series will be sold in two ways: the first by auction, and the second as NFTs.

She is also developing a project focused on reframing the legacy of Mary Magdalene.

Again utilizing the diptych format, the series will juxtapose 17th Century paintings of this enigmatic figure with a similar but altered new photograph, recasting Mary Magdalene as a the high priestess she was, and not the repentant prostitute she was made into.

Laura holds an MA in Performance Studies from NYU, and a BFA in Dance from Marymount Manhattan College.
