Linda Bills, resident artist in the post-baccalaureate program at Maryland Institute College of Art, describes her work as the exploration of her experience of the natural world and the unfolding of her spiritual life.
“How amazing it is to me that the brilliant yellow orange of an oriole can become a presence felt in my body and that the repetition of a mantra transforms to a luminous field of energy,” says the longtime Baltimore resident.
Since the late ‘90s her work has included sculpture, installation, drawings, prints and a collaborative performance with the Moving Company that is centered on a group of her sculptures.
Her work has been exhibited in galleries and museums throughout the United States, including the Baltimore Museum of Art, Delaware Art Museum and Museum of Arts and Design in New York City.
She has received fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts and grants from the Maryland State Arts Council.
