JORI PHILLIPS

I am a multimedia junk artist who works primarily in textiles. I have a focus on creating wearable art pieces and doll art. I strive to use only second hand, discarded or natural materials in my works in a personal goal of re-use and sustainability. Originally from a small island off the coast of British Columbia, I now call Nevada County home.

I work primarily as a hand tattooer for the last 17 years, and am also an illustrator, painter, mixed media artist and beadworker. After 10 years of living in Goa, India for the winters, practicing tattooing, and traveling with the art all over the world, Nevada County became my home of the last 11 years. I have a Tattoo Garden and home art studio where I work with clients who want custom Tattoo and design artwork. Painting and beadwork are a passionate and personal expression and adventure. The natural world and ancient civilizations inspire everything I create.

My creative practice includes painting, murals, illustrations, graphics, and textiles. This mixed media approach provides a unique kaleidoscopic expression and multifaceted approach to art and design. In this way, what I create reflects where I create from, a multicultural background and identity that bridges cultures, languages, stories, and mediums together.
