LAURA RABORN
VISUAL ARTIST

“Making art that reflects the human experience and our surroundings has provided me with many gifts - I look closely at people, places, things and words with expansive curiosity and wonder. My art making pushes me to deeply consider how we view and judge each other. Developing the work is my way of thinking and learning about the complexities in our culture and in my fellow humans.”
