Barcelona, 1995
Laura Lagraña (Culitomatón, Barcelona, 1995), based in Bilbao, holds a degree in Illustration, Ceramics, and Sculpture from IAE Pau Gargallo (Badalona). Straddling sculpture and illustration, her practice transforms a gray, fast-paced world into one that is playful and absurdly colorful. Her process begins with drawing, where ideas emerge and then gain autonomy through color and its relationships; ceramics come last to give body to the characters and, through glaze and materiality, to move away from the first line and build a tender, playful, and deeply human narrative.
