About
Copper Electroformed Paper Sculptures
I create three-dimensional mixed media sculptures using paper, metal and experimental sheet materials. Combining layered structures with experimental surface processes including acrylic paint, alcohol inks, and copper electroforming.
Drawing inspiration from natural forms such as coral, birds and geological formations, pattern, colour, and organic texture.
I’m fascinated by the power and movement in nature in contrast with it’s delicate fragility.
Focusing on detail, texture and material finishes, the work sits naturally within architectural and interior environments and can be made to commission.
I’ve worked with paper for over 10 years and have produced paper artwork and sculptures for both commercial and private clients around the world. This includes commercial commissions ranging from editorial work to large scale installations and visual merchandising.
I’ve worked in commercial industries for over 25 years. Starting her career as a graphic designer and animator in London, and working on TV commercials for the music industry.
After this I moved on to direct live action music videos and eventually co-owned and was the creative director of an animation company based in London.
In 2025 I was awarded a scholarship with QEST and have begun a new journey to explore metal as a material. Creating mixed media pieces and developing new skills in metal work including electro forming paper. You can follow my journey on Instagram: lisa_lloydpaper
Lisa is proud to be a QEST Scholar and a member of The Paper Artists Collective.
