Laura Hallen

Primary Medium: Painting
Other Mediums: Mixed Media, Photography

As an artist, Laura Hallen has always been interested in layers, thinking sculpturally about her paintings, and pushing two-dimensional art beyond its limits. She likes to play with depth of perception and exploring what is behind the top visible layer. Like peeling back the layers of an onion, her paintings reveal a three-dimensional experience. Laura’s abstract botanical paintings are made with plexiglass, acrylic paint, melted beeswax, colored shellacs, and decorative papers. Currently, she is exploring her own photography and incorporating it into the background of the pieces, manipulating the imagery with multiple paintings hovering above in a plexi-box format.
