Lee Albert Hill
Artist's Statement
Working in traditional methods of acrylic on canvas, Lee Albert Hill’s paintings focus on flat geometric patterns in combination with his signature approach of hard-edges, wide brush action-painting and edge to edge compositions. Upon closer look, a sense of storytelling through symbiology is revealed imparting a quality of inscribed time. Simultaneously, Hill’s work exists alongside a range of totems, calligraphic lines, maps and musical rhythm.
Art reviewer Wayne Allan Brenner of the Austin Chronicle has humorously written that, “Hill is no stingy minimalist and his work answers the question, what happens when shapes run away to join the circuits?” Brenner has also written that his work compares to the patterns of tangram puzzles and the wiring of “Gods Own Boom Box ”.
Each painting is based on Hill’s everyday observations in combination with personal eccentricities and intricately embedded details. His work is often a reflection of mark making across the landscape as seen high above from the air and is conjured from both historical sources and fluid modern culture.
