Lauren Bell is an abstract artist whose work blends painting, collage, and mixed media to evoke memory, place, and emotion. Rooted in nostalgia, her practice draws from childhood recollections—impressions of landscapes, objects, and fleeting moments—reinterpreted through a playful yet deeply introspective lens.

Using a combination of naïve shapes and objective elements, Lauren constructs dreamlike compositions that balance abstraction with a sense of familiarity. Layers of texture, color, and collage mimic the way memories shift and evolve over time, creating works that feel both personal and universal.

Inspired by vintage ephemera, worn surfaces, and the tactile nature of childhood play, their art captures the warmth, wonder, and sometimes melancholy of looking back. Through this approach, Lauren invites viewers to reconnect with their own past, engaging with the emotions and atmospheres embedded in each piece.

Lauren resides in a village by the sea where she continues to explore the intersection of memory and materiality in her home studio.
