In material there is spirit, which is transforming on personal and artistic levels. The arrangement of materials creates stories, which shape our daily practices and create earnest impacts. How can these materials represent time and space that is no longer there, or has yet to exist?

Lillian Britt is a multidisciplinary artist who utilizes painting, sculpture, drawing, writing, performance art and installation to cultivate transformation of natural materials into images and spiritual entities that both honor the natural world and act as protests against suppression. Building upon European Witchcraft traditions and histories, hybrid practices of Witchcraft and Christianity, and critical investigations of the Master of Animals narrative, Britt’s works reimagines the natural world and acts as a protest against social and political suppression. The resulting multimedia productions are self-imagining time machines that inspire futures of serenity and freedom.
