Michelle Laverty

I stumbled across Michelle Laverty the other day when doing some research for college.  Some of her recent work has been concerned with drawing and paper pricking ... and then some elements of stitch added.  Her personal statement is very interesting:

"My work evolves in a conceptual space where social and political ideas engage and collide 

with processes and materials that act as metaphor for the vulnerability of the human condition. 

My practice is concerned with the phenomenological belief that places emphasis on subjective human 

experience in how we react to the world around us, emotionally and intellectually.

Current drives focus on endurance and repetitive actions within the context of drawing."
