Laura Yuielle was born in Glasgow and is now a London based artist who focuses on sculpture, video and performance. she like to explore juxtapositions and uses language and various mediums as an art form. She explores the unhealthy relationship between need, desire and excess which i think is an ever expanding problem in this materialistic society Yuielle also notes that “I'm interested in exploring the boundaries between public and private space, the fetishisation of transcience, and notions of displacement, transition and transformation in relation to time, place and the invisible infrastructures that shape our existence” i find this an interesting as the concept of public and private space is an everlasting problem which has caused many wars and conflicts, since we can remember territory has been engrained into our minds yet the world was not made with barriers. This adoption of instinct seems to correspond with the movement from Pangea to the world we know today.

Yuielle recently presented a solo exhibition, “obscolescent vibes and me” which features human figures intwined, tangled, connected and strangled by household appliances which are made to make our lives easier. It seems to be exploring the frustration of so called ‘improvement’ to our homes and cities which all to often just feel like quick fixes to a much more complex problem. Yuielles work has this reccuring motif of connecting wider global conditions to local conditions and the importance that the whole world being secure has on our domestic life and wellbeing.
