Ilsa Brittain

Ilsa Brittain is a London-based painter with a master’s degree from the New York Academy of Art. Her work explores the boundaries between illusion and reality, blending representational and abstract techniques, and now expanding into 3-dimensional objects. Ilsa is fascinated by the magic of illusion—how materials like paint, cloth, or objects can transcend their form and invite deeper questioning. Having lived in diverse environments, from remote forests to bustling cities, her experiences shape her understanding of art and the concept that "perhaps everything is an illusion."
