Made of pieces of tail lights found on the edges of streets as the results of accidents.
I assemble the pieces mechanically using wire.

I work mostly with litter and disposable objects. I see litter as traces of energy, a broken connection. Putting the pieces together is my way of fixing what's broken. My work is inspired by The First Law of Thermodynamics (Conservation) which states that energy is always conserved, it cannot be created or destroyed. "The total amount of energy and matter in the Universe remains constant, merely changing from one form to another. I sense this constantly and I can't stop thinking about it.

Laura Quattrocchi  is a movement and visual artist. Laura was born in Padova, Italy and moved to New York City in 1995 to study contemporary dance and relocated to Detroit in 2016. Central to her dance development was studying improvisation  with Daniel Lepkoff, and Elaine Summers ( Kinetic Awareness).

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME
I love moving.
As long as I can remember, I was always interested in moving. Dance was my way into studying this world. It took many years and lots of traveling to understand in this messy field what I was really interested in.
It was not dance forms or styles.
My passion was really to learn the mechanics of movement, our animal-self.
With that I found Freedom, freedom from form, institutions, academia, competition, a safe and solid place where I could teach myself about myself where I could sense myself in relation to everything else.
With that I found the beautiful logic of life and its elements, the connection to my weight, my energy, gravity, air, life, The Earth, and It changed my placement in the world.

ARTIST STATEMENT

Form is the result of energy patterns, behavior, accidents, chemical balance....
Form is always there
Possibilities are always there.

I sense energy around me.
I observe my body and how it connects to everyday life through movements.
I practice movement improvisation
I practice listening, seeing.
I practice using my hands.
I practice cleaning outside.
I practice patience.
I practice saying hi to people.

My work at least for now feels like a puzzle. Gathering pieces to understand the whole pictures, to fix what’s broken, to find what’s missing.
It helps me coping with the madness of the world of human beings.
It reminds me of beauty.
It keeps me hopeful.
It keeps me alert.
