Laura Astrup Larsen (b. 1996, Copenhagen, Denmark) is an artist and designer based in both Stockholm and Copenhagen. In her artistic praxis, she blends her design knowledge with the craftsmanship of glass and ceramics. Driven by curiosity, Laura explores playful combinations of materials. In a world highly driven by digital interactions Laura seeks to reconnect us with materiality. Through colour, textured surfaces and soft shapes she creates highly sensorial objects to awaken the viewers curiosity to sense. Although ceramics is her primary medium, Laura frequently integrates other materials in dynamic, playful ways.
