Lisa lives in the Arava desert in Israel. She documents the cycle of life in the seemingly barren nature around her through her art.
Lisa has a PhD in Cultural Anthropology, and has worked as a researcher on the social memory of the Holocaust, and on human-nature-technology relations in the Indian Ocean in a prior life. She moved to Israel with her husband and daughter in 2020, and has since started to paint the desert landscape surrounding her as a way to grow new roots in her home of choice, and to express her love for it.
When she doesn’t paint, she probably gets lost behind a book, writes speculative fiction, or spends time with her family, dog and cats.
In July 2024, I participated in the Artists’ Greenhouse of the Fresh Paint Art Fair. The exhibited works can still be purchased via Fresh Paint’s catalogue.
