Laura Casas - Thinking and Feeling: Outside - Eye Center Concourse Display

Laura Caroline Casas is a potter and illustrator from Columbia, NC. She graduated from Western Carolina University in 2018 with a BFA in Studio Art. She now lives in Raleigh, NC with her husband, Mason and tuxedo cat, Rosa. She works in her studio, Casas Studios, Downtown Raleigh and is the Clay Studio Coordinator at the Pullen Arts Center in Raleigh, NC.

My pottery is hand-built from red earthenware; pinched, coiled and decorated with an array of colored slips and underglazes. I aim to create wares that resonate with the user all while expressing my inherited cultural memory through narrative and latent energies. I acknowledge not only my own identity as a contemporary latine individual, but engage with indigenous influences and history through my forms, clay choice, color palette and techniques.
