Exhibition Overview

Lisa Montag Brotman sees herself as a 鈥渞eporter and interpreter of human emotions.鈥 Brotman says: 鈥淚n my paintings and drawings, I express a personal vision of a universe that is somewhat askew. My work focuses on psychological investigation and ruminations in a world I see as humorous, tragic, exquisite, frightening, bizarre, and mysterious.鈥 This exhibition centers on the female figure, often set in splendid, unsettling, suggestive spaces that tease reality but are ultimately transformed. Each title is painted on the surface of its painting to emphasize the interplay of text and images, amplifying each work鈥檚 emotional and psychological content.
