Laura Semro

Northside Studio Resident, May-September 2024

Laura makes art and is originally from Houston, Texas. She talks to ghosts and loves the sun. She plays with the balance between obscuring and oversharing her life through drawings, prints, zines, poetry, and a lot of little jokes. Nothing is too precious, nothing lasts forever, and her favorite collaborator is nature (especially birds, Mary Oliver, and the sound of Lake Superior). 

She's spending the summer making a series of zines; exploring the process of making ink and paper from largely accessible, natural, and potentially deteriorable materials, she's considering the concept of how seasonality and impermanence inform art as a publicly consumable diary (yum).
