The inspiration for Laura Lappi’s upcoming exhibition are the grandeur of ancient basilicas, cathedrals, and medieval Scandinavian wooden structures. The sculptures comprise abstracted segments of various architectural structures, reminding of the sculptural properties of some of the world’s most renowned works of architecture. Through the series of sculptures Lappi addresses the topics of what these buildings and structures represent in our communities, since they are usually seen as the most expressive, the most permanent and the most influential and shape the way we live and think.
