Laura Diggens is a british artist and designer

Her practice is centred around architecture, working mostly in ink and watercolour.

Studying Interior Architecture and later working with landscape designer Jinny Blom, her lifelong interest in architectural history was retained and nurtured. In early 2019 she moved to Florence to study history of art to learn more of the great buildings and architects of the Renaissance.

Her time in Florence ignited a desire to capture the many layers and histories of buildings through art. She eagerly researches the buildings she works on to better understand the lives and decisions that shaped them, often writing to accompany her artwork.

Laura lives and works in West Dorset.

“Architecture is the very mirror of life. You only have to cast your eyes on buildings to feel the presence of the past, the spirit of a place; they are the reflection of society.” I.M. Pei
