PRESS: Conversations on Art: Lia Halloran by Ricky Amadour
“Lia Halloran traverses through mechanisms of experimentation in order to document motion of matter. As an interdisciplinary artist, Halloran examines the interconnectivity of scientistic cultures and the performance of light. Halloran recently presented Your Body is a Space That Sees at LAX Terminal 1, as well as a solo exhibition, The Sun Burns My Eyes Like Moons at Luis De Jesus Gallery in Los Angeles. In this interview the artist deep dives into the creation of cyanotypes, her Dark Skate series, and the influences of mythology and science on her practice.
Halloran is represented by Luis De Jesus Los Angeles, and is an Associate Professor of Art at Chapman University in Orange, California, where she also teaches courses that explore the intersection of art and science. Halloran is currently an artist-in-residence at the Division of the Humanities and Social Sciences as part of the Caltech-Huntington Program in Visual Culture.”
