Artist Demonstration: Laura Petrovich-Cheney

Learn about the artistic process of Laura Petrovich-Cheney, whose work is a profound assessment of contemporary issues merging with the traditional folk-art practices of quilting and woodworking.
In her recent sculpture, a dialogue exists between environmental and individual concerns. Much of Laura’s work is feminist in nature, incorporating traditional women’s arts such as needlework and quilting which are transformed through found and re-purposed materials.
