Siris Hill

Collection Overview

Siris Hill’s disruptive, daring, Nouveau-renaissance works are the embodiment of marginalisation in modern Britain. His artworks aim to create an aesthetic understanding of the experiences of mental health and social disenfranchisement for audiences of all backgrounds. Using painstaking digital recreation of 17th-century oil work techniques, he resituates and humanises the passive subjects of the Dutch masters into a personal political context. Brutally compassionate, Hill utilises his personal experience with PTSD, Generalised Anxiety Disorder, and homelessness, to create works that betray ...
Siris Hill’s disruptive, daring, Nouveau-renaissance works are the embodiment of marginalisation in modern Britain. His artworks aim to create an aesthetic understanding of the experiences of mental health and social disenfranchisement for audiences of all backgrounds. Using painstaking digital recreation of 17th-century oil work techniques, he resituates and humanises the passive subjects of the Dutch masters into a personal political context.

Brutally compassionate, Hill utilises his personal experience with PTSD, Generalised Anxiety Disorder, and homelessness, to create works that betray the inner states behind many social masks. By using the universal vocabulary of gender, costume, nakedness, speech and mortality, Hill hones into the ever-known sense of self imposter. Reminiscent of Bobby Baker, he moves beyond art as a personal catharsis into the realm of authentic interpersonal connections.

His overarching goals as an artist are to create an understanding of the experiences of the mentally ill and powerless, by working within the art world and without. Combining cutting-edge technical innovation with the visual language of valued museum art, he fosters an aesthetic understanding of the bridges between historical and modern human experience.
