The "Impressions" collection by Stephanie Dillon is a bold and provocative series that challenges traditional artistic boundaries through a fusion of Impressionism techniques and raw, unapologetic expression. Featuring the use of vulgar language integrated into the artwork, this collection deliberately disrupts the viewer’s expectations, creating an intense dialogue between visual beauty and gritty realism.
Dillon employs a wide array of materials, including mixed media, found objects, acrylic paint, spray paint, oils, and chalk, occasionally sealing her work with an epoxy finish to give it a polished yet industrial edge. The combination of these materials creates layered, textured pieces that reflect the complexity of human emotion and societal critique.
This collection’s graphic and disruptive nature is not merely aesthetic but serves as a commentary on the harsh realities of life. The use of bold colors and striking imagery juxtaposed with aggressive language forces viewers to confront discomfort and beauty simultaneously, making "Impressions" a thought-provoking, visceral experience.
Stephanie Dillon’s exploration in "Impressions" breaks down the boundaries between the refined and the raw, inviting the audience to engage with art that is as confrontational as it is reflective.
