Lillian Cooper

Enviro Artist of the Day!

Getting to is a little late today, but the good thing is a slow day at work allows for ample time to find amazing new artists.  Today's artist is completely new to me and I was so drawn to her drawings that I became completely unaware of the people in front of me.  I made it through the work day, however, and am now every excited to share her with all of you!

-LILLIAN COOPER-

Lillian Cooper is a site specific artist that predominantly works in drawing but she also uses text and installations in her work.  She works with the intimate relationship she has with her surroundings and relating that relationship to the viewer.  The works are very personal and show how connected humans are with the earth.  The relationship between urban and rural is everywhere and very evident in her works.

Reconstructed drawing that have the flowing feeling of a river. or simple driftwood pieces with simple phrases that speak to our relationship with the earth.  They are quiet and profound.

Her  works can be found on her website:  http://www.liliancooper.com
