Lisa Hunt Holiday Gift Guide
We are absolutely honoured to share this very special gift wish list curated by artist, printmaker and designer Lisa Hunt of Creative Hunt. Whose most recent work draws inspiration from African American quiltmaking and traditional West African textile techniques.
Lisa Hunt is a Maplewood, NJ-based visual artist whose screen-printed works explore the meditative relationships of patterns. Hunt draws inspiration from textiles, often working with a gold leaf motif. Recently, she expanded into collage, where her work is influenced by traditional African American quilt-making.
In 2021, Lisa Hunt exhibited her work at the International Print Center New York as part of the “Mapping Narratives: New Prints 2021/Winter” exhibition and at the ‘Unraveled. Restructured. Revealed. Where Contemporary Art and Diverse Perspectives Intersect”, exhibition at the Trout Museum, Appleton, Wisconsin.
Lisa also became a founding fellow at the New Hope Colony Artist Residency in 2021. Previously, Hunt’s pieces have been exhibited at the Texas Contemporary Art Fair and have appeared in Elle Decor, Interior Design, and Luxe Interiors + Design. Hunt is a founding member of the Black Artists + Designers Guild and is represented by Uprise Art and Stella Ripley Contemporary.
