Lisa Golightly’s paintings are rooted in the concept of capturing memories. She begins the process of a new show by searching for old photographs in thrift stores and estate sales. Sorting through the abandoned records of other people’s lives provides her with unique insight into other’s personal histories. There is a nostalgia to the imagery - and yet it is not personal to the artist. She is an impartial viewer - immortalizing in paint something someone else deemed special enough to capture on film during a time before the current moment of endless digital photographs stored unseen on our devices.
