Laura Ford
“Laura Ford’s sculptures are faithful representations of fantasy with sometimes bitter sweet and menacing qualities mixed with tenderness. She uses humour and an acute observation of the human condition to engage with wider social and political issues.”
Born in Cardiff 1961 Laura Ford studied at Bath Academy of Art from 1978-82 and at Chelsea School of Art from 1982-83. She was included in the British Art Show 5, 2000 and represented Wales in the 51st Venice Biennale in 2005.
Solo shows include Camden Arts Centre, Arnolfini, Bristol, the Royal Scottish Academy and Turner Contemporary, Margate, touring to the Economist Plaza in 2007. Her work is represented in many public collections including the Government Art Collection and Tate Gallery, London.
