LISSA HUNTER
Statement on the Artist
Lissa Hunter’s 30 plus years as a nationally acclaimed mixed media artist have revealed her to be a story teller, a journalist, and magician with materials. Ideas and materials are what inspire her, combined with everyday life experiences, nature and observations of the systems and rituals of being human. Lissa states, “Sharing our experiences is a necessary gift we offer to one another, if only to bear witness to our having lived. Like other artists, storytellers hold one key to our history; they are the keepers of our collective memory kept alive in generations of minds.” Lissa’s focus is on the nuances of the natural world. She shares with us simple moments and makes them into a precious experience. Lissa has exhibited and instructed nationally for over 30 years.

Critical Acclaim
“Lissa Hunter is an explorer. In her art making she goes on journeys and enters into a world where not everything is clear. But for her, the exploration isn’t a linear journey – it’s circling back to what she has always known, only with each circle her art becomes richer and more mysterious.”
.....Stuart Kestenbaum, Surface Design, Winter 2008
