Artist information

Exhibition information

Jessica describes her work as “abstract realism” with a strong emphasis on the environment and man’s relationship with it. Her contemporary work explores the intersection of memory, emotion and the natural world. Jessica often uses discarded materials to emphasise her reuse/recycle/re-purpose mindset. Jessica’s art is marked by a keen sensitivity to colour texture and form, drawing the viewer into a contemplative space between abstraction and representation.
