Lisa Saeboe is a visual artist based in Brooklyn, New York. Her work synthesizes mysticism, sexuality, and the natural world. Saeboe explores themes of feminine power and our divine connection to our ecological sphere, which often express themselves through alchemically-realized depictions of self-transformation. Her works on paper often feel like concretized rituals, as she creates textile backgrounds using watercolor or natural dyes from found plant matter. Ghostly impressions of blossoms and leaves from her lived environment serve as a grounding force beneath her bold and intricate graphite drawings. Born and raised in Oslo, Norway, Saeboe graduated from the School of Visual Arts in 2015. Most recently, she exhibited at the SVA Flatiron Project Space in a two-person exhibition with her longtime collaborator Kate Jones. In December 2023, she will be exhibiting work at NADA Miami with Paradice Palase.
