Alice Dillon is a fi ber artist from Worcester. She has been interested in the arts and sewing since childhood, but began actively identifying as an artist in college after teaching herself how to embroider. Dillon’s work focuses on combining linear imagery and repetition in an eff ort to bring androgyny to a classically feminine medium. Recent bodies of work have focused on portraiture, language used during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the importance of hands in lesbian imagery and culture. Dillon is a graduate of Clark University, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in art history and history and a master’s degree in history studying women in the HIV/AIDS activist art movement. She exhibits her work regularly in Worcester, and has been published in Sunspot Literary Journal and Juniper Rag.
