“The Loser Show” is the latest installation in this ongoing body of work by artist Laura Quattrocchi. Blending sculpture, performance, and community engagement, Quattrocchi transforms discarded lottery tickets into poignant reflections on hope, chance, and loss.
Much of Quattrocchi’s creative practice navigates human nature through the lens of found objects and acts of gathering. She collects overlooked fragments of daily life, reassembling them into artworks that illuminate our social systems, emotional desires, and the traces we leave behind. Her practice bridges personal narrative and subtly touches social critique, revealing how everyday materials carry hidden stories about value, aspiration, and human connection.
“I asked people to ‘Bring me their Losers.’ I heard many stories. The idea of the exhibition slowly formed. The loser ticket holds your energy, your hope to win. Only assembled together does this energy manifest itself in its power, like a mirror—a place where we can experience our shared vulnerability.” -L.Q.
