Lisa Field is a writer, nurse and photographer.

She is the author of the circle and the line and the photographer for Last Cut Project, including the LAST CUT book. Lisa’s photographs have been featured in Elle, Huffpost, The Today show, The Lily, NBC Los Angeles, Shondaland and more.

Lisa holds degrees in psychology, sociology, women’s studies and nursing. She has worked as a labor and delivery, postpartum and newborn nurse, doula, and birth photographer. Some of her most connected moments have happened when documenting images and stories of maternal and child health and empowerment in the United States, Uganda, India, Indonesia and the Copper Canyon of Mexico.

Lisa is the mother of two stellar adult children. She lives with her partner in NYC and is working as a postpartum nurse in The Bronx. Her current project aims to merge what has previously felt like the disparate parts of herself, the creative and the caregiver, through examining and writing stories from her experience in the nursing profession, along with those of nurses she has had the privilege to work with, and whom have had the most profound impact on her ideas about humanity, service, integrity, voice and stamina.

ARTIST STATEMENT

I’ve spent my life curious about the human experience.

My purpose is presence and perception.

I believe there is legitimacy in our longings, and knowing beauty is our birthright.

I believe true connection is possible with transparent vulnerability and unfiltered honesty.

I believe it doesn’t have to be hard, though it often is, and love, shared generously, is the way through.

My intention is freedom. Yours, mine, ours.
