o Description: Laura Marsh is a textile artist with a social practice. Her spheres, flags, and installations contain social mottos and humanitarian texts. From two generations of women who sew, Marsh practices a do-it-yourself approach that is accessible and hands-on. Her desire to define spaces that are place-makers for others to express the need for more fluid conversations about feminism, gender, and class issues. Marsh regards her practice as multilayered and transformative and it is often participatory. She supports the activation of uncommon sites. Marsh received her MFA from Yale University School of Art and a BFA from the Cleveland Institute of Art. She has exhibited nationally at venues including The Whitney Museum of American Art, Printed Matter, Field Projects, Jane Lombard Gallery, Tilton Gallery in NY, Locust Projects, Bernice Steinbaum Gallery, and Deering Estate in Miami. Marsh is in the collections of Francie Bishop Good and David Horvitz, Dennis and Debra Scholl, and Mindy and Michael Solomon. She has been an artist in residence at Oolite Arts (Miami Beach, US), Mana Contemporary (Miami, US), and Siena Art Institute (Siena, Italy). She's represented by Dot Fiftyone Gallery in Miami.
