Laura Bivolaru (b.1992, Iasi, Romania) is a visual artist living and working in London, UK. Her practice explores tropes of postcommunist Eastern European identity that derive from the micro-environment of the family and extend to the nation. The home is seen as a transitional space between self and society, a site of negotiation where the quest for truth clashes with domestic myths. Through her own photographs, archival materials and moving image, she researches how time, history and the collective shape the individual. She holds a First Class Honours Degree in Photographic Arts from the University of Westminster and an MA in Photography from the Royal College of Art. She is a member of the Revolv Collective.
