Introducing our next artist: animator and collage artist Lisa Barcy (@lbarcy)
Lisa’s show opens June 2nd. Join us for the opening from 7pm-10pm
“For most of my creative career I’ve worked in animation, frequently using collage elements to piece together both narrative and abstract work, but several years ago I began experimenting with collage as a stand-alone art form. The works here began as the collage version of the intuitive doodles I would make in waiting rooms, meetings and other situations that typically require stilling still, which I find vastly overrated. I also find the patterns that appear everywhere from the natural world to domestic settings lend a certain joyful satisfaction. Perhaps that’s where the knife-wielding control freak takes over.”
