Lizzie Lombardo was born October 27, 1994, in Thomaston, a tiny mid-coast fishing town in Maine, where she spent the first 18 years of her life. Craving a change of scenery, culture and bigger opportunities, she moved to New York to attend Pratt Institute as a Fine Arts major. After spending two years studying sculpture, she planted herself in Brooklyn, NY. Several years later, she relocated back to mid-coast Maine, where she continues to work, play, and create.
Her work combines her interest in historical icons and events of popular culture, social issues, as well as experiences of her own and the people she knows. Dedicating a portion of her time to collecting personal and impersonal artifacts as both references and art-making materials (i.e. newspapers, photographs, magazines, antiques, thrift store finds), she creates (and recreates) imagery in various mediums reflective of her mental and emotional state of mind while maintaining a dry sense of humor and sentimentality. Among other things, she is interested in creating installations as "environments" of her own fantasy and guiding viewers to experience and interact with the art. Work made in recent years is a conglomerate of imagery inspired by Maine’s rural and coastal landscape, internet culture and memes, retro sci-fi and horror films, and weird found objects.
All work (unless otherwise noted) is available to purchase, as an original or print. Two-dimensional commissions (paintings, prints, drawings, and collages) are also available. Some sculptural works are available. For inquiries, refer to Contact page or e-mail at eannlombardo@gmail.com.
