Lisa Walsh uses colorful enamels, mixed metals, and flameworked glass to create wearable art pieces which explore concepts of history and place. Her current body of work, The Topography Series, features lines of elevation from significant places such as state and national parks. It is heavily informed by her love of geology and cartography, which blossomed during family camping trips across the US. Lisa’s art career began in 1998, her work has been featured in numerous books and magazines, and is in the permanent collections of Purdue University, Ivy Tech Community College, and the city of Lafayette, Indiana. In 2000, she helped establish Artists’ Own, a cooperative art gallery and thriving cornerstone business in Lafayette. Her work is sold in this gallery and several others across the US.
