EXCERPT FROM buy some damn art INTERVIEW
How did you make the jump from working on paper to this series? … I knew that I wanted to do something sculptural and tactile; I also moved into a new apartment recently, and during that process decided that I needed to use various things I had lying around in my studio or get rid of them by the end of the year … including all this dye and rope and leftover frames.  So I just started...

One of my favorite online purveyors of fabulous original art is going to feature me and sell my work!  BUY SOME DAMN ART is the brainchild of Kate Singleton, Art Hound blogger and excellent art aficionado.  I am honored.  The show opens this Tuesday, May 29th, and will feature six new works that I’m thrilled to show as many people as possible.  Please tell your friends!   Lauren

rope sculptures
Rope from a Vietnam War parachute + Seventies Macrame Crafts + the quick pleasure of a glue-gun + Minimalist tendencies towards negative space = Latest works.   These appeal to me on a base craft level, as well as bring to mind the decade before I was born.  In my imagination, the seventies exist as a decade of peace efforts, and a time for experiments on all scales.  The trend of paying homage...

fake topography
This latest abstract series is inspired by topographic maps.  Unlike the maps I used to pore over and the places I used to fantasize about as a kid, these landscapes are imaginary.  Mental travel instead of physical travel.

excerpt from May 2011 Mammoth Collection Interview
In a time when you can simply click a few buttons to create perfectly symmetrical shapes, you chose to create yours by hand. Can you tell us a little about your process?
