Ariel Dill lives and works in Los Angeles. Born in 1976 in Los Angeles, she received a BA from Skidmore College, Saratoga Springs, NY, in 1998 and an MFA from Hunter College, New York in 2006. Her work has been exhibited in the United States and Europe. She has been awarded a New York Foundation for the Arts Painting Fellowship and is included in the Alex Katz Foundation Collection.
Ariel Dill paints abstractions that include visual occlusions, hiccups and whorls. Bleary shapes spread across her canvases, with moments of movement or focus implied as if her compositions could be entered psychically. Dill’s intuitive process leads with color and pulls from a vocabulary of forms the artist develops during automatic drawing sessions. The artist's paintings invite the viewer to explore her anthropomorphized imagery and revel in their slippery nature.
