Lisa Hunt
American
Lisa Hunt is an artist with a belief in the transformative power of beauty found in everyday life. Her screen-printed works on paper and canvas explore the spatial and meditative relationships found within repeat patterns. Comprised of graphic shapes, symbols, and re-imagined typographic elements, they are executed with a minimalist approach. Hunt’s work alludes to art deco and traditional African and Eastern textiles and she employs an aesthetic use of gold leaf as a nod to its adorning use throughout art history.
Lisa Hunt was born in Rome, New York. Her work has been exhibited at various contemporary venues including Texas Contemporary Art Fair; High Point North Carolina, with a group show at Plant Seven; a solo presentation at Bernhardt Furniture Gallery; in New York City at the Other Art Fair and at the Architectural
Digest Design Show. She is represented by Uprise Art and Stella Ripley Contemporary. Lisa’s exploration with the screen printing process has led to printing her larger scale editions with the master printers at The Lower East Side Printshop in New York. Internationally commissioned and collected, her work has appeared in Elle Decor, Interior Design magazine and Luxe Interiors + Design magazine. A founding member of the Black Artists + Designers Guild, Lisa studied graphic design at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York and currently lives in Maplewood, New Jersey with her husband and their dog Sally.
