The Thoughts in My Head

The Thoughts in My Head are a collection of thoughts I write down regularly—whenever I think of them. They are inspired by Jenny Holzer’s Truisms. Just thoughts that are true to me. I make them is hoping that other people identify with them and relate to my thoughts, which makes me feel less alone.

In 2011, I got an artist residency at Byrdcliffe, where I made the first dozen paintings. Now I write several hundred a year and narrow them down to about twelve, which become paintings.

Book

Lisa Levy is an established New York visual artist who hosts the popular podcast "Dr. Lisa Gives a Shit" on Apple Podcasts. 

There are over 100 images of her 'popular' text based artwork that comprise the art book "The Thoughts In My Head". The book was conceptualized by the written language that's out in the world — graffiti, signs, posters, flyers, matchbooks — in one big cauldron.
