To the Providence underground art scene enthusiast, Tillet is probably known for his artistic and planning contributions to the “Straight Mixed Culture” mixed media art series, a night planned and executed by several visual and musical artists most recently held at the Ron Wexler Studio on Weybosset St. Tillet’s work has been more accessible, though, previously displayed at places like the Providence URI campus and the Johnson and Wales multicultural center downtown, and for good reason. His paintings are rich in color, texture and theme, and an instant hit to those who catch a glimpse; many reflect the diversity and vibrancy of his Latin culture, through portraits of the ethnically diverse and with scenes depicting critical, cultural traditions.
