James Dillon Wright, professionally known as Dillon Boy, is a contemporary artist and designer based in Las Vegas whose bold, layered work fuses pop culture with graffiti grit. Influenced by his upbringing in the 1980's and years spent living abroad in Italy and across Europe, Dillon Boy blends nostalgia with sharp social commentary, using vibrant color palettes, iconic imagery, and a fearless approach to visual storytelling.

Known for his energetic and playful style, Dillon Boy's work spans illustration, painting, and design, seamlessly crossing into the worlds of art, fashion, toys and various sub cultures. His distinctive style and creative vision bring a fresh, confrontational edge to contemporary art, one that resonates with audiences worldwide and bridges the gap between street culture and the fine art world.

I am an artist who boldly outsourced the deepest revelations of my soul to a predictive text machine. While others spend years meditating in Parisian garrets or crying into their paint water, I clicked a button and waited 7 seconds for enlightenment.

This artist statement is not so much written as it is auto-generated — which makes me both incredibly lazy and undeniably futuristic. The irony is delicious: an artist using artificial intelligence to explain why they are unique, authentic, and irreplaceable.

Each word you’re reading was technically not my idea, yet I will absolutely take credit for its brilliance. This collaboration with AI is less about technology and more about me looking like a genius for typing “make me sound deep” into a chatbot.

Like a modern Warholian soup can, this statement feels mass-produced and touched by artificial intelligence yet somehow it is individually still mine. It reminds us that automation doesn’t kill originality but redefines it — every idea is borrowed, recycled, or repackaged.

The twist now is that a machine can do the borrowing for us. Creativity, as it turns out, isn’t about inventing something from nothing, but about arranging the familiar in ways that feel new. True art lies not in being the first, but the ONE in making you feel understood, connected and as if it was always meant to be.
