Laura Reborn Dolls
Laura Cosentino, the owner of Laura Reborn Dolls, and recently Luxury Reborn dolls, was born in 1982 in Catania, Italy. At the end of 2009, thanks to the web, she discovered the world of reborn dolls and the art of reborning: a very difficult technique, which requires love, passion, precision and dedication. Laura Cosentino is a fabulous artist, who sets really high expectations for herself. Her eagerness to learn and continue improving, encourages her to attend online courses, forums and get in touch with many experts in the sector.
Laura started her reborning career in 2010. Since her first doll, Cosentino has achieved many awards for her artistic reborning skills:
- “Rooting Certificate”, “Artist of the month June 2015” by the Reborn Lifelike Baby Guild
- 2nd place in “Contest Clark 2016” for the creation of a doll from the Clark kit by the American sculptor Samantha Gregorya
- 1st place with her “Twin B” sculpted by Bonny Brown, in the contest “Artist of the Month”, organized by the PRA * ISE (one of the most important world institutions in the field of reborn dolls) in June 2016
Laura Cosentino has also been recognized as a member of many institutions recognizing and promoting the art of reborning:
- Reborn Doll institutions IIORA (International Institute of Reborn Art)
- “International Reborn Artists and Sculptors” by R.A.S.E (Reborn Artists Selected by Excellence)
- Art Doll A.T.L.A.S. (Artists That Lift, Appreciate And Support).
- Laura had her own solo exhibition “DOLLS REBORN IN ART” in May 2017, in Catania.
Laura Cosentino dreams of spreading the art of Reborning in Italy and passing her knowledge and skills to the new generations of artists. In December 2019, she published her first book entitled “Reborn and Reborning dolls”.
All the reborn babies she has created were sculpted by the best reborn sculpt artists in the world. Laura always chooses high quality materials for her reborning process, and her incredible work is the result of her enthusiasm, love, care and attention to every single detail. She is extremely committed to her hair rooting, or when it comes to inserting hair, a technique that is considered as one of the most difficult and important stages of reborning. She is willing to spend hours and hours working, trying to give her best in creating lifelike little babies.
Despite having a solid experience and a long list of achievements recognising success in her career, Laura never settles and keeps improving her artistic abilities.
