Lisa Ross is an artist and photographer who lives and works in the Bronx. Her work revolves around the liminal spaces in which faith, culture, and abstraction meet, and she describes her work as a portrait of a landscape and a landscape of a portrait. Her first museum exhibition, Living Shrines of Uyghur China, took place at the Rubin Museum in 2013 and was accompanied by a book of the same name. Ross is a grantee of the Asian Cultural Council and a Bronx Museum AIM recipient.
