Laura La Rosa is a Dharug woman, graphic designer, illustrator and published writer.

With over 12 years experience as a creative practitioner, Laura has worked for SMEs, arts organisations and across NSW government campaigns, producing visual collateral and written content and messaging for Indigenous and non-Indigenous audiences.

Laura completed a Bachelor of Creative Arts and design (Graphic Design) through Charles Sturt University, receiving two Dean's awards for academic excellence. She is passionate about the end-to-end creative production process and approaches written, visual and user-experienced-based projects by emphasising a robust and ongoing briefing process. Her creative production work foregrounds the importance of representation and elevation of those outside the dominant mainstream.

Her published written body of work encompasses memoir, film and literary critique, as well as essays that discuss themes of race, class, feminism and popular culture. She is currently in the early stages of several long-form historian-focused pieces. With bylines in Meanjin, Kill Your Darlings, SBS, The Saturday Paper, Sydney Review of Books, Eureka Street and The Big Issue, Laura aims to foster disruptive discourse that challenges the status quo.

A proud Dharug and Calabrian woman, Laura lives on the land she grew up on.
