Origin and Exile

"Within the cosmos, my presence is negligible. Yet, there is something human about the need to reiterate one’s existence. Documents of who we are and where we are abound. Information and visual stimuli flood our days and overwhelm our senses. Technology provides a platform for storing images we feel compelled to capture but rarely revisit. The world spins and is subject to time and its inhabitants. In the narrow realm that is now, my work both utilizes and reacts to the inundation of technology as I gaze upon, record, and preserve invisible fragments of the changing world. I used imagery from the Sally Ride EarthKam project. This image captures the Al-Fayoum Oasis in Egypt. I chose it for the desert colors and unique formations created by water and manmade development. My evangelical childhood contained stories of Egypt. I thought of these while painting." - Jennifer Bock-NelsonPrints are produced on demand on stretched canvas, acrylic plexi, or giclee fine art paper in a variety of sizes here in the United States.
