Biography
Lisa Munter was born on June 21, 1989 in San Antonio, TX. She became interested with art and design at a very young age. Throughout her life she has studied music, fashion, drawing, painting and many other types of media. She is currently in her senior year at St. Edwards University studying art. Lisa greatly enjoys traveling. When she was sixteen she went on a six week trip to Israel with a Jewish youth group. This opened her eyes to a love of learning about different cultures. Since then she has traveled throughout America and Europe. The city that has inspired her the most has been Paris, the heart of the art world.
Artist Statement
In the Harry Potter series of novels, the main character Harry fights Voldemort. A showdown of good versus evil. Against all of the odds Harry has to go through, good ultimately wins. Harry Potter teaches children from a young age that there are good people in the world, and there are bad. But does anyone explain the in-between? Harry Potter, like so many other stories, shows a clear cut, black and white view of peoples personalities. When in truth, people are usually somewhere in the gray. It is not only in situations of grandeur such as Harry trying to save his world., but it’s the juxtaposition of peoples personalities in everyday life which make them so interesting. People can be shy in certain situations and be the life of the party in others. The situation your in, the type of people your around, how well you know those people all have an effect on what your personality will be like at that moment. It can change in an instant. Every individual has unique elements which make up these personalities. All of these elements come together to form one complex person. The Woven Series demonstrates this idea. The same portrait is made in different mediums then cut into strips and woven together. The image demonstrates the complexity of that person.
Senior Show Proposal
For my Senior Show I would like to explore the idea of two mediums or color schemes that make one piece. I want to make two identical portraits or pictures of other content and cut the paper into strips on the diagonal. I’ll then take those strips and weave them together to form the final pieces. I plan on doing mostly portraits, but also want to experiment with different subjects.
I picked this theme because I believe everyone is made of many different parts. No one is purely good or evil, stupid or smart etc., everyone has different aspects to their personality. By making the strips different from each other, but still having them fit together to form the person, I am trying to convey that’s its ok to have these apposing feelings inside. It’s the duality of our personalities that make us unique.
