Lisa Woods

About the Artist

The Ogallala, an essential yet disappearing aquifer in West Texas that will take centuries to recharge, inspires Lisa Woods to create a world where technology, ecology, and mythology intertwine. Through installations, kinetic sculptures, and video projections, Woods juxtaposes mechanistic modern agriculture with the fluid animistic qualities of water. Surrounded by multiple devices, a monumental sculpture of the Ogallala as an ancient subterranean goddess will command the gallery as a symbolic transfiguration.
