Lisa B. Fox

Teacher/Instructor; Visual Arts: Mixed Media, Murals, Painting, Photography, Printmaking, Works on Paper

As a retired art teacher from the public schools for 40 years, I have enjoyed introducing children PreK-12 to the excitement and diversity of a wide range of art mediums and related experiences. I have also taught private lessons to kids and adults. As an Audubon summer camp counselor, I have been able to share my love of nature and have enjoyed working with the children’s programs at the Pilgrim Monument and Provincetown Museum. This past summer I taught drawing and painting to kids at Truro’s Center for the Arts, Castle Hill. Work is often done on commission.

K. E. Sekararum

Performing Arts: Dance, Vocal; Visual Arts: Printmaking

K. E. Sekararum is a multi-media and performing artist whose work currently focuses on intaglio printmaking techniques. Elizabeth spent 20 years in Indonesia where she devoted herself to performing, preserving and promoting the traditional arts of East Java. In addition to managing the Mangun Dharma Art Centre, Elizabeth performed as a singer and dancer throughout the archipelago, on national television, and as the host and star of Elizabeth Nyindhen (Elizabeth Sings), a weekly regional television program that showcased traditional gamelan orchestral music. During her time in Indonesia, Elizabeth learned to embody the rituals, symbolic animism and mysticism that infuse so much of the Javanese performance aesthetic. Combining her passions for theatre, dance, music and the visual arts, and building on her performing arts career and extensive ethnographic research, Elizabeth earned a Doctor of Musical Arts degree from the University of Western Australia in 2014. In 2016, Elizabeth completed a Certificate in Green Printmaking at Zea Mays Printmaking. Her work is included in the Zea Mays 2017 flat files and archives. Elizabeth is also a member of the Boston Printmakers and the Printmakers of Cape Cod. Using the technique of copper plate intaglio, Elizabeth’s current work explores her Javanese experiences. No longer daily immersed in the life of a Javanese singer and dancer yet enriched by years of experience, Elizabeth’s work questions states of identity and embraces the distorted lens of the embodied outsider.

Laurence Young

Visual Arts: Painting

“Grounded in representation and then abstracted through process” is how Laurence Young would describe his current work. All his canvases start out with an abstract, multicolored under-painting that creates the groundwork for what is to follow. Next, a charcoal line drawing, sketched from a life source, is applied. “The drawing sometimes acts as an outline and other times it’s barely noticeable, leaving only hints of ghost marks that were eliminated,” Young says. For the top layer, his oils are mixed with a cold-wax medium, giving the application of paint a thick, flat, and opaque colored surface. The painted shapes may follow the contours of the line work, but mostly they suggest form and space. At times the various layers and elements of the painting are incongruous with one another, creating deliberate tension. Other times they play together in harmony. “Adding yet another layer of complexity, I use the under-painting in such a way as to create the unexpected,” Young says. “The process of exposing that under-painting is part of the exploration and discovery in my work.” The back and forth of scraping down and building up the top surfaces keeps the work in constant flux and challenges Young artistically. What seemed to be arbitrary at first in the under-painting suddenly makes sense in the overall expression. “The choices I make while painting are not always conscious ones–they can be intuitive or even be counterintuitive,” Young says. “I go wherever the process leads me.”
