About

Lisa Denyer's practice explores the polarities of a slow, considered painting process against the speed and sensory perceptions of daily life. The work relates to the body, the spaces we inhabit, and the visuals we encounter on a day-to-day basis.

Surfaces are developed using paper cut outs in an approach that is both spontaneous and contemplative. Geometric elements and gestural marks are tested on a variety of substrates including weighty plywood, clay, canvas, panel, and sandpaper. These materials are selected for their textual qualities and for the way they assist, and disrupt the application of paint.
