William Chill Gallery
"My work is based on the urban/industrial landscape of the American Rust Belt. I intend these images of rusting steel mills, aging cityscapes, and decrepit industrial machinery to serve as metaphors of a changing world while reminding us of a not-too-distant past. Mood and a sense of place are important elements in my work, and I try to use this language to create pieces that the viewer can connect with".   Click here for Bill's Resume'
