About Lisa- marie
I have always had an obsession with colour, texture and objects with a story. I collected shells, scraps of pretty paper and ribbons as a child but a tiny, rusty key I'd found on the pavement one day was, and still is, one of my prize possessions.
After a visit to York Open Studios in 2009, I was inspired to make my own mosaic and since joining BAMM North I have exhibited, delivered workshops and undertaken commissions.
I create mosaics for the sheer personal pleasure of collecting and handling beautiful tiles, materials and found objects and the wellbeing that it brings me.
Whilst I follow different sparks of inspiration to create a variety of subject matters and formats, I really enjoy using mixed-media to curate collections of colour, texture and intriguing objects.
