4.5 x 4.5 in
Lesley Dill is an American artist working at the intersection of language and fine art. Her elegant sculptures, art installations, mixed-media photographs, and evocative performances draw from both her travels abroad and profound interests in spirituality and the world’s faith traditions. Exploring the power of words to cloak and reveal the psyche, Dill invests new meaning in the human form. Intellectually and aesthetically engaging, the core of her work emerges from an essential, visionary awareness of the world.
Dill has had over a hundred solo exhibitions, her artworks are in the collections of many major museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art New York, and the Whitney Museum of American Art. In 2017 she was named a fellow of The John Simon Guggenheim Foundation. Her opera, Divide Light based on the poems of Emily Dickinson was performed in San Jose in 2008. In April of 2018 the New Camerata Opera Company performed a new version in New York City. In 2021, the Figge Museum in Davenport. Iowa will stage her exhibit “Wilderness: Words Are Where What I Catch Is Me”.
The artist is represented by Nohra Haime Gallery in New York and Arthur Roger Gallery in New Orleans.
Lesley Dill lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
