A Peacefully Artistic Fight For Human, Animal and Environmental Rights.
Jil Love is an innovative artist who is making waves with her provocative images and creative use of art as activism to raise awareness, motivate society and expand consciousness.
The artist says her “mission is to awaken a force in those who view our images...To raise awareness, ignite ideas and incite people to action. We peacefully and artistically fight for Social Rights, Animal rights and Environmental rights.
Born in Tarragona, Spain, to a family who valued education and art, Jordina Jil was introduced to the arts at a young age. Her mother Enriqueta instilled in young Jil a passion for the cinema and sent her off to Barcelona at age 16 to study the craft. Two years later, she was off to Madrid, working as a dancer and public relations manager for a well-known club.
The time she spent working in the club scene of Madrid introduced her to a number of people from the entertainment industry. It didn't take long for her to get noticed by photographers and talent agencies. Soon, she was working on television programs and appearing in several movie productions. After traveling the world, Jil settled down in Santa Fe, New Mexico, where she had a spiritual epiphany while working as a nurse in a hospice. The result was that she wrote, produced, directed, and acted in her first—and arguably most provocative—film, Saving Isis. Since that time, she has gone on to produce and direct 4 additional movies, acting in 3 of them.
