Lisa Meyer-Kairos

polyoptic = multiple seeing

My focus in this work is on non-linear memory, metaphor, association, and imagined space. I am interested in contrasts- dynamics between materialism and transparency, weight and buoyancy, construction and organic growth,  maximalism and minimalism, and hard and soft. Decentralized imagery, suspended in layers of transparent beeswax, creates a sense of floating space. Instead of being about a specific moment in time, these paintings are about accumulation of memory and perception; this accumulation generates it's own sensory landscape.
