Laura Phelps Rogers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Laura Phelps Rogers is a sculptor who works with bronze, iron, and other metal fabrication techniques, as well as photography and site-specific installations.[1]

Born in Denver, Colorado,[2] Phelps Rogers sees her work as an "extension of the Western landscape." She has been part of the Pirate and Ice Cube Co-Ops in Denver, and in 2018 opened FoolPRoof Gallery in the River North Arts District.[3] Phelps Rogers has a connection to antiques, which she says:[4]

brings a historic aesthetic to my contemporary sculpture. It's all documentation — me remembering things that have come and gone. All of my work is memory-based, layered in a complex manner.

Her work is held by the Denver Art Museum, the Anschutz Medical Campus, Lamar Station Crossing and the Talsi Regional Museum in Latvia.[citation needed]
