About Artist

Lisa Miller

Lisa Miller, an orthopedic surgeon turned photographer, brings the precision of the operating room into her art. Through her lens, she captures timeless, sometimes timeworn beauty and serenity, details often overlooked in the rush of everyday life. Her work is meant to provoke reflection and stir emotion. Inspired by Rembrandt, Sebastião Salgado, and Sam Abell, Lisa’s photography uses tone and shadow to distill complex scenes to their essence. By capturing fleeting moments, she encourages viewers to reflect on the transience of time, and appreciate the lasting beauty that surrounds us. Lisa is based in La Jolla, California.
