ARTIST STATEMENT
There are as many different kinds of art as there are moments of time, and my art has changed to meet my own needs for expression or instrospection over time. In the current moment where the world feels particularly complex, I am seeking joy and peace through elemental concepts of color, and form, with the simplest of materials.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Lisa Jenschke is a local artist, who grew up in Dallas, studied in Germany, got married in England, and left the Seattle rain to move to Chicago winters. Her work is multidisciplinary and responds to the world around her with materials that best suit her expression. Her multidisciplinary work is heavy on printmaking, but she also spends time painting, making video, and creating installations. \ She is currently experimenting in raw canvas and stain. She divides her time between her art and helping resettle refugees and asylum seekers on the south side of Chicago.
