Scott Lyon creates quiet labyrinths of surreal visions suspended behind glass. His shadow boxes tell stories and secrets. He's a sphinx of magical capers, a riotous entertainer, a collector of abandoned treasures brought back to life.

About Scott Lyon
Scott Lyon creates quiet labyrinths of surreal visions suspended behind glass. His shadow boxes tell stories and secrets. He's a sphinx of magical capers, a riotous entertainer, a collector of abandoned treasures brought back to life.
Scott discovered this unexplored medium 30 years ago while attending art school. A book found in the art library about the artist Joseph Cornell started his work. Cornell crafted boxed assemblages of astounding mystery and beauty. Recognizing the intriguing possibilities, Scott began a life of shadow boxes!
Each box is finely crafted with passionate attention to design and detail. A captured three- dimensional stage exploring lost narratives, illusions and memories. The results intensely captivate and swirl reality and dreams into a make-believe universe. Scott currently lives and works in Santa Fe.
(We first met Scott at an outdoor exhibition in Santa Fe several Summers ago. We immediately fell in love with his work and been collectors ever since. We hope you enjoy his creations as much as we do.)
