TERRI LLOYD

Terri Lloyd is a visual artist living and working in Los Angeles.

She began her exploration into the absurdities of the human condition at a fairly young age and attributes this to her 1960s latch-key-kid youth.

In the late 1980s she accidentally landed a computer graphics job and spent the next 25 years in commercial art working as a print media designer.

In 2010 Terri founded The Haggus Society, a non-profit feminist arts group for women over the age of 40.

Terri has authored two books, When I Grow Up And Other Mantras, and The Little Red Book Of Commie Porn (out of print) with artist Norman Conquest. She is also a frequent contributor to Black Scat Books and during 2016 wrote a monthly advice column, “Ask PB” for the online magazine Le Scat Noir.

Currently, Terri divides her time between a vibrant visual arts practice and a Dadaist performance act known as Pink Buddha. Once in a while she manages to feed 4 cats, a macaw, a possum, a raccoon or two and one very patient husband.

ARTIST STATEMENT

I navigate an abyss which lies somewhere between Alan Watts and Hunter S. Thompson. Zen in one hand, Gonzo in the other.

Language plays a key role in my work. There is much time spent with the defining terms of an individual piece, often before any visual content is put forth. It’s important to know and understand both the etymology and current meaning of the words I exploit. This understanding gives me, literally, a basis upon which to draw.

Scenes are set against backdrops of what could be described as a sort of Zen Surrealism. Compositions host a subtle yet lyrical meticulousness. Key elements are recognizable throughout much of my work: a simple vertical three panel layout, sky at top, horizon line and ground. My palette within a series tends to be rigorous. Action, much like thought occurs on both upper and lower planes of the image.

I find Zen and Gonzo to be like farmer and jackass working the same plow. Navigating this landscape allows me to not only observe and react to the zeitgeist, but also to dig down deep within my own guts, exposing the entrails of what remains of my personal archetypes and mythologies.

My influences include Manga, Film Noir, classic cartoons, comics such as Krazy Kat, surrealism, conceptual art, branding, and advertising.

REVIEWS/ MENTIONS

“Lloyd’s work is fiercely satirical and uncompromising, innovative and risky.”

—Norman Conquest, Publisher Black Scat Books

“The mudras remind me of a magician’s hands or diagrams of card tricks involving sleight of hand. The
sky with clouds of various coming weather.... There is an anxiety and a calm. I don”t know what I’m looking at but I can’t stop looking. The images speak on a deep psychic level.”
—Miguel Sanchez, poet

“...For all their subtle wit, I also experience alternatively energizing and calming affects, as I do when working a crossword puzzle. It’s almost like being drawn into a private joke that can only be appreciated by members of a secret society.” —Stephanie “Pina” Russell, Teacher/Director at Samadhi Bhavana Center for the Cultivation of Con- sciousness
