Alexis Hilliard is an artist originally from Portland, OR.  She received her BFA in painting, photography and video from Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle, WA.  Upon graduation she began working for numerous artist throughout the Pacific Northwest and abroad (including Gage Academy of Art, at the Florence Academy in Italy & primly for the American painter Bo Bartlett).  

     In 2014 Alexis received her MFA from the New York Academy of Art in Manhattan.  She currently specializes in complex collages of all sizes & subjects.  Fanatically pieced together from thousands of cut out photographs, art references and personal images; Alexis is able to create swirling seductive compositions out of paper.  Her collages works are all traditionally made "cut and paste" handmade style, and are filmed via time-lapse video to document the visual process. Reflected in each piece she creates, Alexis aims to expand the merit and medium of collage, through a fine art practice.
