Guest Speaker: Erica Pizza

  

            

Talk Title: From Gathering to Gluing: Women, Instinct, and the Transformative Power of Collage                          

Erica Engfer Pizza is an Advanced Placement Art/Design and Art History educator whose

artistic practice is deeply intertwined with her role as a mentor. Inspired by the fresh

perspectives and boundless creativity of her students, Erica's multidisciplinary artwork delves

into the beauty often overlooked in the everyday. In our fast-paced world, she finds profound

value in slowing down, observing the subtle beauty that surrounds us.

Drawing inspiration from the structure and tactile nature of bookmaking, Erica explores themes

of repetition, mixed media, and assembly. Her work playfully challenges conventional notions of

the book form while honoring its inherent qualities. Through the lens of landscape and human

connection, she investigates both macro and micro abstracted elements, employing

printmaking, expressive mark-making, intricate collage, and the incorporation of collected

organic materials to bring her vision to life.
