As a self-defined media archaeologist, Louise creates works that invite reflection on contemporary digital culture, in close collaboration with scientists and researchers. She often uses everyday devices like mobile phones, computers, and screens as an expanded repertoire of sculptural materials to interrogate how technolgy shapes human perception.
Born in London, Louise lives and works in Barcelona. In recent years she has been artist in residence at Collegium (ESP, 2026), the Nitride Technology Centre at Technische Universitaet Braunschweig (DE, 2026) the Interdisciplinary Centre for Chemistry and Biology at the Universidade da Coruña (ESP, 2025-26) and Fabra i Coats, Barcelona (ESP, 2024).
Her work has been supported by intuitions including the Ministerio de Cultura de España (ESP), Acción Cultural Española (ESP), Arts Council England (UK) and Artists Now (UK) among others. In 2023 she was awarded the Royal Society of Sculptors’ Gilbert Bayes Award for exceptional emerging sculptors and the 2022 Clifford Chance UAL Award for Sculpture for outstanding graduates. She holds an MFA from Central Saint Martins UAL, London, supported by the South Square Trust Scholarship (UK).
Louise has exhibited internationally at institutions including Saatchi Gallery (UK), the Royal Society of Sculptors (UK), Manifesta 15+ (ESP), London Short Film Festival (UK), the Royal College of Nursing (UK), LUX Moving Image (UK), Science and Art Lab (DE), Common Room Shanghai (CN), and Casa RARO (ESP).
