Brooke and Chase Lawrence are married collaborative artists based in South Carolina. They met in Atlanta, Georgia, where they earned their undergraduate degrees in painting and sculpture at Kennesaw State University. The Lawrences are sculptors and oil painters best known for their signature use of biophilic mediums, such as live and preserved botanicals. The artwork they produce embraces nature’s unique textures, qualities, and relationships to man-made objects. They live and work together in a historic Craftsmen homestead filled with rare artworks, furniture, and artifacts of antiquity. Their collection spans the 15th - 20th centuries, housing original artwork by storied Renaissance artists, Albrecht Dürer and his master, Michael Wolgemut. Their ever-growing collection lends a strong aesthetic influence to their work, as they simultaneously create every piece together. They explore new expressions of biophilic design, theatre, and symbolism through highly ornamental and biological works of art.
