Gloria’s Nightly Dance Sculpture

Lauri's style is predominately surreal, with a significant influence of hyperrealism and magic realism. She dives into the depths of the subconscious, exploring the intricate relationship between dreams, nightmares, and the waking worlds. Her pieces are usually inspired by her vivid dreams and visions, with a curiosity about these non-physical entities that come from the subconscious imagination and their connection to reality. Lauri's art often mimics realism such as her use of silicones and human hair as well as representations re-created in stones and resins. The process is all handmade and usually begins from an initial inspiration to the drawing, sculpting, mold-making, casting, painting and finishing, these creatures take on a life of their own. Lauri is a multi-award winning artist and has been published and exhibited in solo, group and finalist exhibitions around Australia, Spain, London, New York and Japan.
