Studio 180 Salon Featured Artist: Lisa Wichalonis

Studio 180 Salon and Lucid Element Multimedia are proud to support our local arts community by serving as a host venue for the Cary Art Loop’s Final Friday art crawls. On the final Friday of each month, we feature a local artist with a reception and cocktail from 6-9 pm. So, come join us at the studio for great works, wine and hors de’ oeuvres and get in the Loop!

Our featured artist for the month of September and October is Lisa Wichalonis of Raleigh, North Carolina. Lisa has been working with clay for over 15 years, creating both hand built and wheel thrown functional and non functional art. She decided to go back to college, earning her degree in Clay and Metal Sculpture. In her first few weeks of school she was introduced to the world of metals, immediately shifting her focus to the beauty of what can be created by working with iron, stainless steel, copper, and aluminum. Lisa now creates clay, metal and mixed medium art, ranging from garden sculpture to both indoor and outdoor wall décor. All of the metal artwork she creates comes from recycled materials.
