Each Sugar sculpture has a theme. The “Laura” sculpture is about Control. Laura stands strong like a Helmut Newton pose, powerful. She holds a rope around her showing that she is in control of desire, in the mystic literature control of desire is often portrayed as holding the reigns of a wild horse.
