DIWO (Doing it with others)

Laura’s practice is interdisciplinary and includes FIELDWORK: the running and participation of events and workshops - DIWO (doing it with others), material based activities often working with skill based professionals. For example, 'What it means to handle stuff - auto-pedagogy - a course in butchery’, Laura brought students from the Royal College of Art and staff from Raven Row Gallery London together to learn butchery skills under a professional butcher, looking at what it means to learn a skill and to deskill, the environment we learn in, the groups we learn with and skills we can access both as an amateur and a professional.
