Artist Statement

Lily Cozzens is an artist and illustrator living and working in Chicago. Through realism and accessible materials, she utilizes the medium of drawing to explore and balance the ideas of sincerity and banality. Lily describes the artwork as follows: “Overall, the aesthetic of the piece focuses on geometric shapes interrupting natural, organic forms, proving a magical element to temper the realistic execution. The owl is an apex predator, meaning that it is at the top of the food chain. The geometric forms provide a literal insight - x-ray style- into the owl, showing its prey, and the diet of the smaller animals will also be shown. The levels of the food chain, brought into an urban area on a door, emphasizing the interconnectedness of nature.”
