In this episode, Laura talks about her childhood in a fairground family in Wales, the early influence of magical, other-worldly artists, how she was nearly thrown out of art school, representing Wales at the 2005 Venice Biennale, why her works can be bitter-sweet and wrapped in absurdist humour, and about some of the pieces in her new show called Under This Roof.
