Lisa Eisner joins female artists and designers for a selling exhibition in East Hampton.
One of Eisner’s “not precious, not little, and not costume” pieces, on display at Oona House.who once told“my pieces are not precious, not little, not costume, but hand done and very California,” has landed in New York with enough jewelry that she may as well be. “I have so much with me I could actually move for three years!” says Eisner over the phone ahead of her month-long residency at Oona House in East Hampton.
Oona House is Lisa Perry’s modernist exhibition space for female artists and designers, and Eisner is the only jeweler in this year’s show. She was introduced to the space and its mission by her friend, the ceramicist and former model and actress Carey Lowell, last summer. “I was blown away,” says Eisner. “I loved the incredible serenity of it… I really wanted to show there.
The two Lisas crossed paths years ago, introduced through mutual friends. Eisner helped Perry with some vintage shopping tips on the west coast, but they hadn’t connected in a long time. Cut to the Oona House residency: It’s the jeweler’s first in the Hamptons and her biggest on the East Coast in many years .
At home in Los Angeles, Eisner photographs her pieces on a shearling covered pool table or in her lush garden. “The Oona House space is almost like the opposite of those museums where they say please don’t touch,” she says. “You need to make it easy for people to try on and put back.” Yes, she’s brought her shearling, but in the Oona House, where she’s setting up between a meditation garden and a moss garden, it’ll cover sculptures, and her pieces will hang from beams.
