Laura Carey

From Laura’s website:
Laura Carey’s work has been heavily based around her personal relationship to suburban life, having been intrigued by the mass of suburban landscape that surrounded her in Dublin. Her work looked at our evaluation of the landscape in which we live, the known sphere around us in which we discover our place in the world and our own relationship to it. Looking at the houses around her has allowed her to see how we are all trying to stand out among the banal. From this she has currently been working on ideas that focus on the interrelationship between fiction and reality. She has been looking at the idea of taking these banal images of the world around me and looking to deconstruct them and create a new image somewhere between the reality in front of me and a created distorted beautiful alternative.

I like how Laura deconstructs the houses in her work; adding and then subtracting elements that reveal more through layers that are built up. See more in her Etsy shop, and also read her blog for more!
