Fíodóra, 2025
A short documentary directed by Tom Oliver:
“fíodóra, named after the Irish word for weaver, offers an intimate portrait of award-winning textile artist Lara Pain, as she invites us into her London studio to experience the ancient magic of handweaving. Through elegant cinematography and an enchanting soundscape that samples the rhythmic beat of Lara's loom, fíodóra transforms the slow, meditative pace of handweaving into an immersive, sensory experience. The result is a poignant reflection on tradition, sustainability, and the creative process, offering a quiet rebellion against a world favouring perpetual speed and mass production.”
Official Selection: Flatpack Festival 2025, The OffBeat Folk Film Festival, UAL Future Fashion Film Festival

Drifter, 2022
A self-led series of handwoven artworks exploring the power of visual storytelling, particularly inspired by the traditional folk crafts of Lara’s birthplace in Switzerland. Handwoven in hand dyed wool, silk and mohair.
The Drifter collection also includes; A patchwork of everything that went wrong. Pieced together from the handwoven samples and failed tests of Lara’s graduate collection, the patchwork acts as a visual sketchbook of the project’s storyline - a zero-waste textile that finds value in what was once discarded; an archive of error and evolution.
