Emerging artist Laura Bishop delves into the complex and deeply personal concept of home in her debut solo exhibition, "Home Poem," at The Creator Incubator’s Little Space from 6 –16 February 2025.
After relocating to Newcastle in 2020, Laura’s feelings of displacement and disconnection inspired this body of work, which examines the emotional and physical constructs of home. Using materials such as silk, velvet, brass, and concrete, Laura creates thought-provoking sculptures and installations, including a padded velvet staircase, concrete cushions, and delicate brass houses. These works evoke the paradox of home as both permanent and impermanent—grounded in memory yet fragile and fleeting.
A graduate of the National Art School and a finalist in the 2023 Textile Biennale, Laura’s work reflects an exploration of memory, routine, and place.
Opening Reception on 8 February, 5 pm –7 pm.
