Rivering

   It’s been virtually ten years since we first interviewed Lisa Grossman for The Artist’s Street. See:  Voices of Expertise – Lisa Grossman. Now, on the event of her 2023 exhibition, Rivering at Haw Up to date in Kansas Metropolis, we needed to replace her interview with just a few photos from her new work. The exhibition work replicate a love affair with the Kansas River, knowledgeable by science and historical past and private explorations achieved by kayak, airplane and path, leading to an beautiful assortment of oil and acrylic work. Additionally included within the present are painted, laser-cut wooden panels created from LiDAR map imagery elegantly revealing the river’s historic pathways.

   The artist writes:  “This exhibition consists of not solely up to date views of the Kaw but in addition work that imagines the traditional and evolving Kansas River Valley. These embrace imagery of floodplain scrolls—scars left behind from previous river channels—the ancestral Kaw Lake, and the proof of historic life alongside the Kaw.”

   “The oil work are primarily views of the river from above, utilizing footage I’ve taken from a small airplane flying at 500-1000 toes overhead or drone footage as much as 400 toes in altitude. These work proceed my exploration of the ceaseless windings of sand and water over time, the ever-evolving channels unfurling throughout the riverbed. In them, I marvel at how the river gives up such dynamic and naturally pleasing compositions.”
