Sculpture by Laura Ford

The exhibition, Laura Ford at Strawberry Hill, will run from 20th June until the 6th November 2015 and will mark the end of the second wave of the award-winning restoration of the interiors at Strawberry Hill.

The artist, Laura Ford, is well-known for her portrayals of animals, with which she explores aspects of the human condition, though in fact Ford describes her own work as sculptures dressed as people who are dressed as animals.

Her figures are faithful representations of fantasy together with a nightmarish imagination and she uses humour and an acute observation to engage with social and political issues.
