Luke uses the palette of the Ancient Greek fresco painter Apelles, and paints from life using his friends as models, as well as the taxidermied animals he collects on his travels. His paintings illustrate the primal beauty of humans at their best and most noble. Their narratives tend to center around themes of death, kinship, ritual, and interactions with wilderness.
Luke Hillestad is represented by The Rymer Gallery in Nashville, the L'oeil du Prince Gallery in Paris, and Flanders and Rogue Buddha galleries in Minneapolis. His work has also been exhibited in Florida, Chicago, Norway, and Germany.
