Lauren Maccoll (b.2004) is an artist living and working on Gadigal land. They love stuff, things, bits, bops, this and that. Rolling around in the world of the pisstake, cultural memory and the icon, Lauren wonders if we have seen all the good pigeons. Working across ceramics, sculpture, printmaking and drawing, Lauren retrieves and rearranges remnants of memories that fall through the seams of the couch.
