Jess Levine : Recent Collages (Ring to view)
25th October to 18th November 2011
Open eve: 25th October 2011 7-9pm
Jess levine is a self taught artist, working mainly in collage as a way of describing emotion, landscape, travel, and life experiences.
“I don’t like to limit myself to one discipline, instead drawing on collage as a way of initially exploring ideas, which i may later develop using oil paint.
My work is often open ended in terms of impact. i like the viewer to bring something of themselves to the process, rather than having meaning imposed by the maker, that is , that in a sense the image answers back to both the viewer and the maker.
I use a wide range of sources for inspiration. I am drawn to the sensory element of making art work, and therefore incorporate a wide range of materials, ranging from staples, sand, paper, maps, and using bleach to create different effects within my work. “ ( jess levine 2011 )
