In the first episode of Series 3 of the Doctoral Dialogue podcast, we’re joined by Laura König, a practice-based PhD researcher at the University of Westminster.
Laura discusses her project Skin Hunger, which explores the relationship between physical and metaphorical experiences of human touch. Her research focuses on “skin hunger,” a psychological condition associated with touch deprivation, which was further intensified during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Through her practice, Laura works with porcelain as a medium, using its hard yet delicate qualities to create objects that evoke the sensory and tactile properties of skin. She reflects on the emotional and physical significance of touch, and how its absence is increasingly felt in contemporary society.
The conversation also explores how her work challenges traditional gallery norms by engaging both sight and touch, aiming to address skin hunger through artistic and sensory experience.
