LAURA
FOSTER


I am a fine art photographer, currently based in Bristol, and my practice specialises in social documentary narratives, portraiture, experimental photographic processes and printmaking.
My work has a multitude of themes and artistic influences, focussing on representing
social issues; in particular mental health, addiction and womanhood.
