"AMONG THE STARS" - From Red Carpets to the Sidewalks: >All net proceeds will be donated to homeless humans and homeless pets. In the heart of Hollywood, where dreams are both born and shattered, renowned visual artist, Dellamarie Parrilli, expands her creative horizons with the release of her latest work, "Among The Stars," published by BookBaby. "Among The Stars" is a compelling book of photographs, a visual journey that delves into the lives of the Hollywood homeless with unparalleled empathy and insight as it boldly reveals the juxtaposition of Hollywood's glitz and the stark reality of homelessness. "Among The Stars" offers an intimate portrayal of life on the streets of Hollywood, captured through the lens of Parrilli's iPhone during her three-year isolation in the Covid-19 pandemic. From her vantage point six stories above the iconic intersection of Hollywood and Vine, Parrilli documents the daily lives of the homeless, contrasting the facade of fame with the gritty reality beneath. Parrilli captures the progression of her Covid 'companions' and their evolving stories - Fashion Guy, Shreddy, Mannequin Gal, Professor, Umbrella Guys, and many others. As if watching a silent movie, each photograph reveals a new chapter in their lives, their daily struggles, moments of joy, the silent perseverance, all creating a stunning visual narrative that speaks volumes without uttering a single word. Parrilli's empathetic eye brings to light and captures not merely the people and faces, but the essence of human resilience and the enduring flickers of hope. "Among The Stars" is not merely a book to be read; it is an experience to be felt, a call to action that cannot be ignored. Poised to make a profound impact on the hearts and emotions of its readers, "Among The Stars" has been described as "stunning," "jaw-dropping," and a book that "leaves you speechless."

Autorenporträt
Dellamarie Parrilli is a multidisciplinary artist, who lives and works in Los Angeles; an enigmatic persona on the scene, who continues to innovate, transcend and intrigue. Her work is wide ranging, ever changing and restlessly experimental, with a distinguished career that spans over five decades encompassing a broad spectrum in the visual and creative arts - painting, sculpting, photography, screenwriting and design. She is a highly accomplished abstractionist, "a born master of her medium", recognized as one of the most talented contemporary abstract painters painting today. "Parrilli doesn't fit easily into known categories... outrageously gifted, exceptionally talented with unstoppable creativity" (Ann Landi - contributing editor of ArtNews). Prodigious in her creativity... Her work has the ambiguity of Joan Mitchell, the headiness of Helen Frankenthaler, and the tenacity of Lee Krasner. Dellamarie Parrilli's artistic journey is a testament to resilience and adaptability. Born three months premature in Chicago, her life was marked by early tragedies that shaped her creative outlook. During her youth, Parrilli's father was killed by a drunk driver, and three months later, her family, surviving a devastating house fire, were left homeless. Parrilli, only 11 years old at the time, embraced her creativity; she had found her voice. Despite these adversities, Parrilli found solace and expression through music, writing, and art. Her early passion for the arts led her to pursue a BA in music from DePaul University, where she also honed her skills in tap, jazz, ballet, and improv. Her versatile talent earned her acclaim in Las Vegas and Chicago, but a diagnosis of Lyme disease and Sjogren's Syndrome abruptly ended her burgeoning career on the brink of Broadway success. Parrilli's innovative works have been showcased in prestigious venues, including the Walter Wickiser Gallery in New York, the Hunter Museum, the Ezair Gallery, the Cork Gallery, and Marymount College. Her unique style has earned her numerous awards and her art is held in private and corporate collections worldwide. In 2023, Parrilli's groundbreaking 3D works were exhibited at the Hardin Cultural Center, captivating audiences with their immersive spatial experience. Her use of industrial materials and avant-garde techniques creates a three-dimensional effect that transports viewers into a world of translucence and depth. This book is a significant addition to Parrilli's multifaceted artistic legacy, reflecting her enduring commitment to exploring the depths of human experience through art.
