Liz Brizzi


I discovered this French artist's work in Juxtapoz magazine. Her work is based in Los Angeles and is generally about finding beauty in desolate places.

Her work isn't perhaps closely related to my current work, but I find it very interesting. Her mixed media technique begins with the manipulation of her original photography collaged onto an acrylic painted canvas and then blended within layers of colorful acrylic washes.

For my current sculpture ideas I have been thinking about urban environments and I could possibly reflect various areas within a sculptural piece through the materials used, but also forms created. To generate ideas of a sculptural piece to build I could possibly begin to work in mixed-medias of photographs from areas/structures/buildings of interest and also initial drawings of development ideas.
