Laura Cowan began her career in London after graduating in Silversmithing and Jewellery at London Guildhall University. She now brings her unique collection of Judaica working from her studio in Tel Aviv.
"I was inspired by the Sixties mission to land a man on the moon," says Laura. In her own words she described that the Sixties brought a fascination of hype and excitement to the world. "I also loved the irony of a futuristic design based what is now history," added Laura.
Laura Cowan’s individual and fresh ideas bring a new wave of exciting Judaica designs, shaking up the traditional market and generating worldwide interest.
Her work is exhibited in galleries and museums throughout the world – America, Canada, Israel, England, Italy, Sweden and Australia.
This month Laura is sending two of her rocket design mezuzot into space courtesy of NASA astronaut Greg Chamitoff, who is currently assigned ISS Flight Engineer and Science Officer on Expedition 17. He will spend six months on board the rocket.
