Lisa Robinson's work reconfigures and transforms the habitats she occupies, appropriating and translating these spaces into paint.  A metamorphism takes place, changing the source material from recognisable forms into something less nameable.  The interior, urban spaces, film and architectural details are often used as starting points. The paintings develop by responding to each mark made with the end result being unpredictable.  The work remains untitled, to allow the viewer to freely translate the relationship of the forms and gestures.

Lisa studied at Manchester School of Art and has recently completed a year on the Turps Correspondence Course. Her work has been exhibited nationally and has been shortlisted for the New Lights Art Prize, ING Discerning Eye Prize and she was a recipient of The Joan Day Painting Bursary.

Lisa currently works in Studio B7, Westgate Studios, Wakefield. The studios are open to the public as part of the Wakefield Artwalk. "Since launching in 2008, Artwalk has offered Wakefield’s creative community opportunities to exhibit their work, meet, and sell to a growing number of visitors. A bi-monthly evening of art, performance, music, heritage and socialising, the events are hosted across a variety of independent venues in Wakefield City Centre." 

The next Wakefield Artwalk will take place on Wednesday 29th May 2024. For up to date information please visit: https://artwalkwakefield.org
