Billie Mae, an analog collage artist based in Hartford, Connecticut, brings a raw and deeply
personal touch to their work. Often centered around their experiences with mental illness,
Billie’s art is a way of processing emotions and moments of darkness while embracing
imperfection as a core element. Drawing inspiration from Daoist philosophies, they use vivid
colors and dynamic imagery that invite viewers to explore beyond the surface.
Billie’s art is a powerful combination of vulnerability, color, and self-expression, making
imperfections part of the beauty of their work. Their collages offer a unique, sometimes
playful, sometimes painful, window into their world, inviting viewers to appreciate the
fragments of life that make us whole.
