LAURA DILL
“My art springs from a sacred space when I shift perspectives… “
Laura is an award-winning visual artist and writer living in Jacksonville, Florida. A self-taught creator, her artistic journey began as an exercise to overcome crippling anxiety and PTSD but has blossomed into artivism that seeks to challenge and transform through brush, pen, and lens.
Her macro and street photography requires being present in the moment and often Zen-like moments of stillness to reveal the extraordinary and frequently overlooked beauty surrounding us. Her paintings are bold abstractions and contemplative pieces that reveal the fragility of humanity and the natural world. Laura’s work frequently pairs photography and paintings with poetry and essays focusing on resilience, environmental issues, and social justice.
Her artwork and writings have been published in numerous anthologies and exhibited in solo and juried shows in galleries throughout NE Florida’s First Coast and St. Augustine. Her work is frequently featured in their promotional materials and on social media. She has displayed work with Downtown Jacksonville in public art projects and special events. Laura has also shown her work internationally through virtual platforms and streamed performances. Several of her writings and artworks are preserved in the permanent archives of Stanford University and Florida State University.
