Lisa Van Noorden

I'm an artist living and working in Rotterdam. I make drawings, paintings and 3d works, and I also create artworks in private and public space.

My drawing focusses mostly on people and animals and their ways of survival and self-protection in our complicated insane environment. I also like to work with symbols which have proven to be strong and lasting to our society, like diamonds, stars, skulls etc. I work very accurate and precise.

Would love to hear your feedback on my work.
