Works by Laura Rouse
Exhibition of new commissions by Laura Rouse, SAW's Graduate Artist. Most recent photographic works have been developed during her placement in our new hub. Laura continues to develop and challenge her concepts of the signified gesture within the portrait. A selection of works beautifully portrays the local and visiting community in a space that is both public yet private.

Development of Laura Rouse's new commissions is supported by South Somerset District Council and Friends of SAW.
