Born in East Los Angeles, Dellis Frank is a dedicated full-time artist whose work intertwines themes of social justice, nature, and decorative art. With a background in fiber sculpture and a commitment to arts education, she has spent over 20 years, tirelessly advocating for the inclusion of art for all students.
Dellis Frank’s current body of work centers on pressing social justice issues affecting communities across the nation. Her art serves as a poignant commentary on the disparities faced by people of color. At the core of her practice is a commitment to sustainability, repurposing materials that would otherwise contribute to landfill waste. This concept, which she has coined “The Greening of Fine Art,” embodies her approach to creativity and environmental stewardship.
Frank paints with fibers detailing a specific color family and wrapping various objects of different shapes. As she experiments with wrapping and weaving techniques, she allows the structure of her assemblage to naturally emerge, culminating in a piece that vocalizes her intent.
Showcasing her work in numerous group and solo exhibitions both nationally and internationally, Dellis Frank has gained recognition for her perspective and impactful themes. Through her art, she not only creates visually stunning pieces but also sparks dialogue around critical social issues. In every fiber work she weaves, a narrative is created that calls attention to the intersections of art, identity, and community.
