ABOUT

Lisa Li (b. 1983) is a Filipino-American artist working in sculpture. She is interested in things that appear stable but are not. Influenced by architecture, geology, and experiences of displacement, she works with weight, scale, and material to think about change, time, and why some things feel permanent when they aren't.
