Laura Mathews - Meet the Practitioners Series, Moving Parts 2021

Laura Mathews - Meet the Practitioners Series, Moving Parts 2021 Join Moving Parts Arts for our online 2021 series of 'Talks with Practitioners'. Find out about the work of talented and varied puppetry and visual theatre artists, whilst having the opportunity to ask your burning questions. Laura Mathews designs and makes articulated animals sculptures and puppets. Their work focuses on bio-mimicry and creating truly convincing impressions of life, spending a huge amount of time designing each creature, studying the skeleton and muscular structures in depth. Laser cutting & digital design allows Laura to endlessly create & refine the patterns for puppets, without the limitations of cutting each tiny piece by hand. This allows the time and scope for developing ever more accurate & intricate work.  Facilitator and digital coordination by Matt Wood
