Way back since her twenties, Laura Bucci sensed that all things fine arts had an important place in the world. Her own fine art experience began with foundations studies followed by photography at the Emily Carr College of Art & Design and then at the Nova Scotia College of Art & Design where she graduated in 92. Then in 2005 knitting and crocheting were all the rage and Laura decided to give it a try and taught herself to knit, crochet, and felt. Consequently she started making bags that were knitted first and then felted. In 2008 she began experimenting with fabric. This is where she is at right now, creating pleasing small works that are also functional. She finds pleasure in the tactile quality of her medium and in achieving pleasant proportions with colour and texture. Laura draws her inspiration from her contemporaries -- artists and craft artists that have re-defined the handmade movement, and that openly blog about their journey in the world of handmade.
