Art Space Sponsored Studio Award 2009

A selection of work in progress from my studio residency at Art Space in Portsmouth.
The residency runs until end August 2009

Lisa Traxler is an artist based in South East England. Her practise combines painting & photography with collage & stitching documenting & investigating the space around her. Her works transcribe a sense of place – the expectancy of a still room, the interplay of light & shadow within a stairwell – the poignancy & resonance the memory of these places hold. A response to architectural elements is also evident – capturing the rawness of familiarity before invisibility sets in.
