Ursi Lysser: Switzerland
Ursi was trained as a dressmaker in Olten where she was born. She has lived in Saudi Arabia and England and now lives and works in the county of Bern.
She has always been fascinated by structures and texture and decided to turn her passion with various workshops and CAS studies into her profession. For the past 10 years, Ursi has experimented with building materials which she is now including in her work with encaustic, a 2,000-year-old painting technique she discovered about 2 years ago.
She enjoys exploring and mixing these various mediums together and also combining it with her 3D works of old wood, documents and metal creating unusual work that is not so often seen in Switzerland but certainly well received.
