Lisa Traxler: Time Traveller
“We all have our time machines, don’t we. Those that take us back are memories…And those that carry us forward, are dreams.” H.G. Wells
OPENING EVENT SATURDAY 2 JULY 2022 FROM 1 – 3 pm
In 2020 Lisa Traxler was awarded first place in Southampton City Art Gallery’s Open Exhibition with her sculpture, ‘Time Traveller – Voyager’ which was inspired by a painting from Southampton’s Maritime and Local History Collection ‘Approach to the New World (Olympic)’ by artist Norman Wilkinson.
Taking her winning entry as a reference point, history and architecture collide in the artist’s solo
exhibition to create an immersive landscape within the gallery setting. Alongside dazzle artworks the artist has created a new series of sculptures transforming and dissecting previous works.
