Laurent Mareschal

Laurent Mareschal is an artist that I quickly became interested in. He uses influences from his Palestinian culture to create an art piece that is interactive for his audience. This particular piece that caught my eye was made using spices poured onto a beautiful template that had cut outs to create a tile like pattern. This gave me the inspiration to use spice and henna as media in my own work and to use them for drawing and colour.
