C Hill

Artist Statement

The external world and my internal world have always held sway over me with their intensity. My art is born of a quest to capture emotions and concepts with all their raw intensity and share it with others.

Biography

My name is Chris Hill (c.hill), originally from New England (Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania). I am a self taught painter, photographer and digital artist currently based in Tampa, Florida. While exploring multiple mediums and mixing them over the last couple of decades, I found that I enjoyed condensing larger ideas and emotions into evocative images that allow room for audience interpretation.
Much of my work mixes both analog and digital techniques and can be viewed through the lens of Jungian psychology, eastern philosophy and mysticism. Although, I began drawing and taking photos at an early age, I became passionate later in life when I was diagnosed as bipolar. Since my symptoms began, I have used art in lieu of medication for most of my life to help me survive and cope with my ups and downs.
Though I have been producing artwork for many years and taught courses in digital photography and the use of Photoshop, but this is my 1st year showing of my artwork.
