Oddments
2021 - present
Since 1980 I have made site-specific installations and have periodically pulled individual pieces from those projects and placed them beside objects intended for other purposes (found) and projects, taking all out of their original contexts.
DRAWN
2020 - 2021 | Whitespace Gallery
Drawn is an installation of 120 drawings, plus objects and sound made from October 2018 through October 2020, in six periods: during residencies at MASS MoCA in North Adams, Massachusetts; Moulin à Nef, VCCA-France in Auvillar, France; The Hambidge Center in the north Georgia mountains; and in my Atlanta studio, before and during the pandemic.
Putting the House in Order
2016 - 2017 | MOCA-GA
“Elizabeth Lide looks for the profundity in small moments and common materials. Her work quietly acknowledges the beauty of things torn from their origins.”
