In Her Wo rds

\n

&ldquo\;Over the years\, I&rsquo\;ve worked in the shape of a house\, a simple square and a triangle on top. The square has a meaning o f stability\, and the triangle means goals and ideas. I moved a lot when I was younger\; my father built houses in his youth and was an avid fixer-u pper until one day my parents were able to build their dream home.

\n

&ldquo\;You&rsquo\;ll see small\, tiny homes and very large ones througho ut this exhibit. What does your home mean to you? And what kind of feeling does your home provide for you?&rdquo\;

About the Artist

\n< p>Laura Lein-Svencner&rsquo\;s collages are a combination of symbolism\, f orm\, meaning and spiritual content. Trusting in the process of intuitive knowing and openness is a huge part of accepting emotional moments. She al lows life to move her playful imagination. Laura finds that the edges of t he paper&mdash\;some clean\, some raw\, and some torn&mdash\;reflect life itself.

\n

Laura grew up in Downers Grove near her grandfather&rsquo\ ;s farm and now lives in Darien. She&rsquo\;s married with four grown chil dren\, a granddaughter (and two more on the way)\, and a home full of lovi ng creatures. In addition to making art\, she spends time teaching collage as well. She is a signature member of the National Collage Society and a co-founder of the Midwest Collage Society.
