Liminal Gallery Podcast host, Louise Fitzjohn, speaks with internationally renowned contemporary artist Laura Ford, to coincide with her solo exhibition ' ‘Little Lords’ in Liminal Gallery's Main Space in Margate. The exhibition showcases a collection of sculptural and wall-based works which explore the boundaries between desire and imposition, inviting viewers into the realm of play and imagination.

Laura Ford's 'Little Lords' sculptures take centre stage, portraying three boy-like figures adorned in vibrant, parrot-inspired costumes. The figures exude a conspiratorial charisma, commanding attention with their playful yet enigmatic presence. While mimicking the stances of superheroes, their concealed identities add an air of tension, prompting viewers to ponder the question: who are they?

Ford's multifarious practice combines playful craftsmanship with acute social commentary. ‘Little Lords’ provides an immersive experience, where visitors can engage with the sculptures' intricate details and delve into the artist's exploration of identity, fantasy, and the human condition.

Ford's significant contributions to the art world are reflected in her inclusion in prestigious public collections, including Tate, The Victoria and Albert Museum, and the Government Art Collection. Laura Ford has represented Wales in the Venice Biennale and has exhibited in solo and group shows around the world.
