Lesley Dill

Lesley Dill's images and constructions explore the nature of the body and its clothing. In particular, her work uses metaphoric imagery to explore the role of language in cloaking or revealing the human soul.

Bron in Broxville, New York, in 1950, Dill attended Skidmore College and Trinity College, Hartford, and earned a BA in English. Subsequently, she earned an MA in art education from Smith College and an MFA from the Maryland Institute, Baltimore. She began to work at Landfall Press in 1992, producing innovative editions which combine traditional techniques, such as lithography, silkscreen, and etching, with collaged elements.
