1 min read

Laura Stevens (British, b. 1977) is a photographic artist whose work explores the private self and the female gaze in narratives of transformation. In quiet, cinematic compositions, she illuminates a psychological state and an interior drama in her subjects, creating studies of vulnerability, solitude and intimacy through a darkly, tender lens. Her work is regularly shown in museums, galleries and festivals internationally, including Galerie Miranda, Clampart Gallery, The National Portrait Gallery and Art Palm Beach. She has been invited to participate in artist residencies at venues such as Cité Internationale des Arts in Paris and Campo Air in Uruguay, and was a finalist of the Prix HSBC pour la Photographie 2019. She received her BA from Leeds Metropolitan University and her MA from the University of Brighton. Stevens lives and works between Paris and London.
