details about this work


Phil Illingworth is based in Southsea, South East


I hoard ideas. Certain things fascinate me for reasons which may be elusive, like a face that seems familiar but which I can't quite place. My practice is about exploring these ideas.

My practice is defined by experimentation. My work includes three-dimensional objects, three-dimensional painting, experimental drawing, video and photography.
