Welcome to Original Lines! In our first-ever podcast, we chat with visual artist Isobel Davis about her life in the arts. Isobel and host Laura Allen talk about everything from cooking to conceptual art, and offer a peek into the mind of an active, diverse artmaker working in Seattle, Washington.
From Isobel’s biography:
“Isobel received her B.A. in Fine Art at Principia College in Elsah, Illinois while also taking terms at Rhode Island School of Design and the San Francisco Art Institute. In NYC she continued her art education at the School of Visual Art, and Hunter College. ..Isobel’s
interactive installations feature tactile objects made from encaustic wax and fiber that include text and photo imagery. Her installation projects demonstrate her strong interest in social ecology, connecting viewer’s lives to sustainability issues through engagement. ”
