Laura Lighthouse
Laura Lighthouse (b. 1980, Barcelona) is an artist with a strong academic foundation in both philosophy and visual arts. She earned a BFA and a Master’s in Representation of Multicultural Identities from the University of Barcelona. After receiving the Ramon Llull Award for philosophical thought, Laura shifted her focus from research to her growing passion for expressing complex ideas through visual media, bridging theory and practice in ways that invite dialogue and reflection.
Having lived in London and Berlin, two cities deeply marked by gentrification and rapid transformation, Laura’s work engages with questions of urban displacement, memory, and the reclamation of public space. These experiences sharpened her awareness of how social and political forces shape the fabric of daily life, making urban transformation not only a backdrop but a central theme of her practice.
Her art investigates the tension between permanence and loss, between belonging and exclusion, using a variety of media to translate these concepts into tangible forms. She creates works that trace the marks of change left on city walls, streets, and communities, examining how individuals and groups adapt, resist, or are erased in the process.
Laura has participated in several group and solo exhibitions, where her work has sparked discussions on the intersection of social change, city life, and the dynamics of growth and development. Through her practice, she continues to explore the shifting landscapes of contemporary cities, inviting viewers to reflect on the broader cultural and human implications of urban transformation.
