No material is excluded from Lisa Easton’s art-making arsenal and she is as adept at forming concrete as she is in welding steel and painting. In her own teaching at Great Falls High, she leads by example as she introduces and expands her audience to contemporary art statements. Local patrons will recognize Lisa Easton as the creator of the sculpture, Two Sisters, and concrete tables and benches sited on the museum grounds.
Of her own work, Lisa says: “My interest in human connectivity and relationships informs my work in functional design. This has resulted in the creation of various kinds of seating in materials such as concrete, mild and stainless steel, aluminum, stone and salvaged wood. These become visual, physical metaphors that invite experiences of personal contact between two people. Metal, especially mild steel, is a favored vehicle in much of my artistic production.”—Lisa Easton
The exhibition is comprised of recent work created by the artist specifically for presentation at The Square. To download an on-line brochure for this exhibition please click HERE.
