Lizon’s work examines the perceptions of objects. Her paintings of ebay purchased and discarded ceramic objects with intricate floral and fauna arrangements composed from a series of photographs taken of flowers and insects in her own garden present a rich scene questioning the values of objects and those that give them value.
Lizon graduated from Bristol Polytechnic in 1986 and lives and works in Bristol. She was a selected for the John Moores painting prize in 2012, selected for the Threadneedle Prize in 2010 and winner of the Exeter Phoenix Open in 2009.
We are thrilled for Angela Lizon having been selected for the John Moores Painting Prize for the second time with her small oil painting Horsemen. Information on the exhibition can be found on the John Moores website. To view other works by Lizon view her artist page.
