Hi there, I'm Lisa Sprite Hansen but most people know me as Sprite. I'm a self-taught mixed media fantasy sculptor and illustrator born in NY and currently living in NY & Canada.
My creations tend to be otherworldly and organic. Creatures and beings of a lost, futurist world, re born from remnants and fragments of a broken earth after it was destroyed Their bodies often provide a glimpse into the world in which they are from or are entire worlds in themselves. I call this world is called "The Broken Planet" and it has been a part of me, developing, since childhood.
My inspiration is drawn from this vision and from nature.
I love drawing, using apoxie sculpt, resin, natural and polymer clays. Most sculptural pieces have inclusions of crystals, geodes, glass shards, natural and/or found items from my walks like driftwood, delicate leaves, dried flower petals pods, twigs, fibers, shells, bone fragments, insect parts and lots of glue. All of my natural materials have been collected over the course of my life and have memories attached to them.
I find being able to observe, preserve and re-purpose natures gifts and/or a tiny life that would otherwise be forgotten to be a special and cathartic experience. I feel this process helps tie our world to a more mysterious and fantastical one that some just need a little help to see... You can read more about this process here.
Creating has always brought me inner peace and wonder even when my surroundings were not…My hope is to give others that same feeling and a world to get lost in if even for a moment.
With each one comes a piece of me.
Thank you so much for taking a moment to stop by to learn a little about me.
If you have questions or comments, please email me.
The greatest creations are those that as you create them, you get lost in your thoughts, by the time you're tired of thinking you're holding in your hands, something from deep within. *Sprite”
