Liza Sylvestre (born November 13, 1983) is an American visual artist born and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She is known for detailed abstract mixed media paintings and drawings. Her current work explores new media such as installation and video art. Much of her work revolves around our sensory perceptions and misconceptions of the world around. [1]

She had a cochlear implant surgically placed in her ear to improve her hearing in 2003 when she was 20 years old.
