DILL Phoenix's Art
Artist Statement
‘Dill Phoenix’ is the persona I made in my life during my recycling phase. “‘Dill’ comes from a story that my dad told me as a kid. ‘Phoenix’ comes from the fact that I used to pick up old soda cans that I would open up and play with.”
Recycling the old and working it into the new. Breathing new life into artwork is the main theme tying together Dill Phoenix's work. In their art, Dill is interested in using any tools and recyclable material into their artwork. Phoenix is also a storytelling artist creating stylized characters in dark and surreal settings. Additionally, Phoenix is driven by their drive to make projects as detailed and high quality as they can.
