Laura Malacart

[Bio c. 2011] 

Laura Malacart is an interdisciplinary artist. Her work constructs frameworks of interactions between different groups or individuals in order to open a discussion on the founding premises of those initial positions. Drawing from linguistics, social sciences and cultural histories, her work places careful attention on the relationship between content and medium. A past work features professional actors and refugees exploring the potential violence inherent in everyday speech when a subject lacks articulacy in a foreign language (Voicings www.lauramalacart.org.uk). Other collaborations include an opera performer and director, (Mi Piace), the Metropolitan Police and dancers (Flamenco).
