Artist's Statement The artwork of Liz Peet creates a domestic narrative by exploring cultural trends, standards, and taboos. In response, her work suggests unexpected juxtapositions for the viewer’s contemplation. Liz feels that hand blown glass holds a unique warmth and reveals a history of its making from a bubble of breath or the effect of a cool breeze. Her work reflects a human touch and personality. She is drawn to the subtle nuances and imperfections of the everyday through light, optics, color and lack of color. Utilizing mixed media, hot glass, neon, and fibers, her pieces exploit themes of women’s work, voyeurism, the accepted, and the unacceptable.
