Laura Slater is a textile designer and screen printer who creates printed objects for the everyday. Drawing and image making is at the core of her design practice which she explores through a range of printmaking processes and application to a wide range of materials and product.
Laura Slater has established her studio practice as a textile designer and screen printer since graduating from the Royal College of Art in 2007.
Laura’s work is occupied with the engagement we have with pattern and colour its ability to connect us with the environments and objects we surround ourselves with.
As a designer Laura’s methodology is centred around developing accessible products as a vehicle for the interaction with directional, colour, pattern, and print as part of the everyday.
Process is an integral part of Laura’s practice with drawing and printmaking at its core. Laura’s outcome is predominately resolved through the intuitive method of working with composition, colour and surface through the act of making.
