Refraction at Illumine Gallery
Laura’s solo exhibition Refraction is now open at Illumine Gallery in Palm Springs. The show presents her newest series of water paintings, continuing her long-standing exploration of light, surface, and movement.
The title Refraction refers to the way light bends as it passes through water, creating unexpected patterns and shifts in perception. Laura’s work captures these fleeting changes, where clarity turns into distortion and reflection becomes its own subject. Each painting invites viewers to look longer, noticing the way calm surfaces conceal complexity beneath.
In this collection, Laura returns to the elemental qualities of water with renewed focus. The paintings build on her established body of work yet feel fresh in their intensity. By layering transparent color and precise detail, she creates compositions that feel both familiar and surprising, reminding us how water constantly transforms what we see.
Refraction is on view at Illumine Gallery in Palm Springs through October 12, 2025. For collectors and visitors, the exhibition offers a chance to experience Laura’s newest interpretations of a subject that continues to inspire her practice.
