Printmaker Laura Berman allows her work to be guided by structures based on sequence, multiple and interactive images. Her work is often non-traditionally displayed and orchestrated. Design and collaboration are paradigms in Berman’s work; she often allows her pieces to collaborate by design with their surroundings, becoming an installation made for a specific place and audience. Through its inherent reliance on language and communication, design inspires her work.
