About Laura Lamiel
“Over decades, Laura Lamiel has built an exceptional artistic identity. In fact, her work and vocabulary have never ceased to evolve, incorporating new elements, and continually blurring the boundaries between the exhibition space and the studio. In the 1990s, after abandoning the frontality of painting, she started making installations where colour and light play an essential role. Her structures, in particular her cells, are as inspired by psychoanalysis as by spiritual cosmology. They host a repertoire of sensible forms constituted by found objects, collections and certain taxonomies of materials that contrast with the immaculate surfaces of steel that she illuminates with fluorescent tubes. In the 2000s, following the cells, she developed other apparatuses—playing with the transparency and reflective nature of oneway mirrors; creating penetrable or buried spaces—while amplifying the biographical and affective charge of the adopted materials.” LL – Laura Lamiel, monograph, ed. Paraguay Press, 2019
