Porter

Sculpture/Installation Performance

“The vanishing point, where entities appear to dissolve, guides exploration through converging timelines. The works reveal illusions of appearance and disappearance through a viewer’s active exploration. Nothing is truly insoluble; all remains suspended in time, awaiting revelation. Reflection reaffirms that existence endures even below perception’s limits. Please reciprocate.”

Lauren Porter is a multidisciplinary artist based in Toronto. Her practice consists of laborious performance, extensive material fabrication, and the place where they meet. Interested in playing to others' senses, this results in some works that include fabricated superficial deceptions that have an opportunity to be clarified through interaction, closer inspection, and communication.
