ABOUT
Award-winning British multidisciplinary conceptual artist living and working in London, UK.
Hillson’s recent artworks focus on the ideas of equality, diversity and acceptance, bringing the viewer into significant observable or interactive installations through enquiry, creating a moment of viewer self-reflection and consideration, highlighting and celebrating the differences found within individual people. He uses sound, video, photography and installation, amongst other mediums, to highlight the themes of his work that are inspired and created from lived experiences and those of close individuals to the artist, captured through interviews and first-hand observation. Other works are created in slow-motion video, looking at the idea of a contemporary recreation of old master's works, creating a collaboration between the past, present and future. With these works being selected as a finalist for the Lumen prize and being in institution collections and of prominent Britsh art collectors. Mentioned in national newspapers, The Telegraph and the Times. |
