This work was created during a productive phase in my art practice where I intently explored
psychological roadblocks to my wellbeing. It was a period of deep investigation which included daily journaling, art practice, reading, and listening to others who had already gone through challenging personal journeys. My time in the studio was a way to self-reflect and process complicated feelings. I drew strength from the creative process and was inspired by the visual confluence of colour, pattern, texture, shapes, and the messages that emerged.

Laura Bucci is an interdisciplinary artist working with interventions, textiles, printed matter, and
participatory installations. Her work explores issues of loneliness and belonging and mostly manifests itself in attempts to disrupt the everyday and to make connections with the public through planned and chance encounters. She has shown in Vancouver at community galleries and artist run spaces and recently in Nova Scotia. She is currently trying to find the right manifestation to express the uncertainty of these times while living as an uninvited guest on unceded Coast Salish Territory in Vancouver, Canada.
