Description

For artist Ivy Jacobsen (b. 1974), painting is like a meditation, a chance for uninterrupted contemplation, and a search for peace. In Seeing Through, Jacobsen presents a body of work that looks beyond everyday perceptions of nature toward a more imaginative realm. She recalls dusky evenings spent on the banks of the Kings River in California’s Central Valley, where in the muted half-light, the air came alive with insects and dust. Forms of trees and plants faded into silhouette, creating an almost magical environment. In her jewel-like oil paintings, the artist seeks to recreate these scenes and open our awareness to nature’s infinite possibilities.
