Mary Pillot Biography: MARY PILLOT, (310) 866-9551 1223 Wilshire Blvd. #558, Santa Monica, Ca 90403 Email: marypillot@yahoo.com www.absolutearts.com www.portfolios.com/marypillot _______________________________________________________________ ARTIST’S STATEMENT: I always try and work from my intuition, trusting the process of creative play, imagination and memory. When I have an idea, I usually write it down as a word or phrase, or sketch in my journal. I might see something interesting while walking or watching a movie, reading a book, listening to music or recording a dream. Then one day I’ll start working with an idea and the images, marks, colors and words take form, sometimes as a drawing, a painting, a poem or objects arranged in a setting. I like to create several things at one time, diverging into a larger space of possibilities. As I begin working, images evolve and I am discovering in the process what I don’t know, or what I didn’t know I already knew. ________________________________________________________________ BIOGRAPHY Present: Lives and works in Santa Monica, CA 90403 Born in San Antonio, TX SELECTED EXHIBITIONS: 2003 Open Studio Exhibit, Venice, CA 2000 “200 Artists for Y2K”, BGH Gallery, Bergamont Station, Santa Monica, CA 2000 Folk Art Gallery, Group Show, Pasadena, CA 1999 Inner City Arts Silent Auction, Los Angeles, CA 1999 Habitat for Humanity benefit auction, San Gabriel Valley, CA 1998 “Isola Tiberina”, Group Exhibit by Invitation, Rome, Italy 1997 “Toma Mi Corazon #V”, La Pena Benefit Auction, Austin, TX 1996 “Connections: A Rhapsody in Spirit”, Galleria Eralov, Rome, Italy 1996 “Diversity”, Lesley University, Group Exhibit, Cambridge, MA 1996 “Taking it to the Streets”, Women’s Caucus for Art, Boston, MA 1994 “Spirit, Light and Poetic Fantasy”, Inaugural Solo Exhibition, Rome, Italy 1993 “Out Auction ‘93”, Los Angeles Gay and Lesbian Community Services Center, Group Show, Los Angeles, CA 1992 “Artists for Change”, Juried Group Exhibit, Santa Monica, CA 1991 “Winter Fest", Juried Group Exhibit, Laguna Beach, CA 1990 The Art Collaborative Incorporated, New York City, NY 1989 Tortue Gallery, Group Exhibit, Santa Monica, CA 1988 Big Sisters of Los Angeles, Group Exhibit, Los Angeles,CA 1987 DeVorzon Gallery, Pacific Design Center, Los Angeles, CA 1986 Ouggi’s on Montana, One Person Exhibit, Santa Monica, CA 1985 Open Studio, Group Exhibit, Studio 500, Austi... to see complete biography, click on artists name Country: USA Birthyear: 01/22/1944 Galleries: BGH Gallery, Santa Monica, CA Lo Studio, Rome, Italy Eralov Gallery, Rome, Italy Lesley University, Cambridge, MA DeVorzon Gallery, Hollywood, CA Awards: Ford Foundation Grant Media: acrylic Style: expressionistic Subjects: landscapes and nature
