BIO

Shiri Phillips is a painter and mixed media artist based in Omaha, Nebraska. Born in Los Angeles and raised in part in Israel, her international background informs her bold use of color and material. Phillips has exhibited nationally and internationally, with work shown in New York and Los Angeles, and is represented by multiple galleries in the U.S. and Europe. Her work is held in private collections across the country.

Shiri Phillips creates vibrant, textured works that explore color, material, and emotion through painting, weaving, collage, and sculpture. Her process is rooted in intuition and play, using recycled paper, paint, textiles, and found materials to construct layered compositions. Guided by instinct rather than formula, she builds rhythmic, energetic pieces that balance structure and spontaneity. Phillips’ work invites viewers into sensory spaces shaped by memory, mood, and material transformation.
