ARTIST BIO

Lisa Oxley is an artist based in Los Angeles who defines her practice as rooted firmly in painting, while working across the disciplines of drawing, installation, and time-based media. Oxley did her undergraduate work at Sarah Lawrence College and School of Visual Arts, and received a BA in Liberal Arts from State University of New York and an MFA from Otis College of Art and Design. She has exhibited her work nationally and internationally and has been awarded artist residencies at the Vermont Studio Center, Verge Center for the Arts, and the Tyrone Guthrie Center in Annaghmakerrig, Ireland. She is currently developing a project based on the dioramas of Louis Daguerre—free standing, two-sided paintings that are activated by light passing through the painted surface.
