Laara Cerman is a multidisciplinary artist working primarily with metal, fibre, and photography. Her practice is rooted in the forest floor and explores themes of decay, regrowth, and memory. She is drawn to slow, repetitive processes such as beading, fibre work, and hand-forming metal.
Cerman’s work often takes the form of sculptural fragments or assemblages informed by natural processes and slow, repetitive making. Influenced by ecology, myth, and learning about the land, her work imagines nature reclaiming and reshaping what has been abandoned.
She is a recipient of the inaugural David Suzuki Foundation Rewilding Arts Prize. Her work has been exhibited at the Canadian Museum of Nature and in group exhibitions internationally.
