Item Description
Iris was the Greek goddess of rainbows and a messenger from the gods. Iris personified the colours and light that appeared after a storm, and flowers spouted wherever she stepped.
"Irises" by Lisa Cirenza was painted live in a Kyoto temple garden during the artists residency. These irises personify their regal histories, singing their colours and celebrating the light surrounding them.
Lisa's passions for art and nature started early in life. She devoted her early academic studies to her love of the wilderness and mountains. At age 17, she was selected for a National Science Foundation scholarship to join a glaciological research expedition in the Juneau Icefields in Alaska. She spent two summers traversing the glaciers, drawing and researching the geological, and climatological histories embedded in their flows. Her photographs and accounts of these experiences were published in "The Power of Ice," a book published by Chicago Children's Press that she co-authored to encourage young people to pursue field sciences.
Her works are united by the theme of connectivity. She is passionate about the role of creativity in solving the problems we humans face. Lisa has exhibited widely in London, Paris, NY, Silicon Valley, Edinburgh, Xian, Dhaka, and Kyoto; in exhibitions including Miami Basel, Venice Biennale, Asian Biennale, and the historical Parisian Salons. Her works are held in corporate, state, and private collections in Japan, France, Sweden, China, Austria, the UK, Canada, and throughout the USA.
Winner receives a 16.5" x 23.4" fine art print of this original painting. Print is delivered without a frame. Shipping included in the winning bid.
