Lisa is a three dimensional paper artist who takes inspiration from nature and the contrast between its delicate details and immense raw power.
It is a therapeutic immersive world, that enables Lisa to process and express her own internal conflict between hope and fear. The physical aspect of sculpting and hand cutting paper, enables her to connect with her materials in a dynamic way; releasing emotions through expressive movement, colour and texture.
Lisa has been working in the commercial industry for over 20 years. She started her career as a graphic designer and animator in London, working on TV commercials for the music industry.
After this she moved on to direct live action music videos and eventually co-owned and was the creative director of an animation company based in London.
Lisa began to work with paper around 10 years ago and it is now her sole profession. Lisa has produced paper artwork and sculptures for both commercial and private clients around the world. Commercial commissions have ranged from editorial work to large scale installations and visual merchandising.
