About The Artwork

This original painting is part of a 100 piece series that illustrates the adaptation of Stoic ideas to modern life. Day 21: balancing life. Day 22: There is newness in every moment. The good and bad come all at once. Day 23: Senses may override the mind, but a steady mind can abrogate the senses. Day 24: Don't add force to falling matters. Day 25: The natural beauty of one thing leading to another. Day 26: The fight against anticipation. Day 27: Breathing in the wild. Day 28: The calm that you find in the power you have to choose. Day 29: A sip, a breath, a smile. Day 30: To experience the full splendor of living in the world requires an obligatory temperance. Day 31. I'll be quiet and not force words into this post. Day 32: Present conversations materialize then pass (like a fleeting Instagram post). Day 33 + 34: Two ways of passing through. Day 35: Things fill my life but they do not make it whole. Day 36: Growing upwards, falling down, regrowing upwards, falling down. Day 37: She moved slowly and with precision in a haze of fatigue. Day 38: Its not what you want in life, but what you want out of the whole thing that counts. Day 40: niceness + decency. Day 41: May obstacles transform to aid, and may the mind dispense the remnants of this undertaking with steadfast indifference.

Jessica Matier attended Parsons School of Design. In 2016 she departed from watercolor and collage practices to pursue a mixed media approach to abstract painting. Her work was in group exhibitions in the New York City, New Jersey, Chicago, FSU Museum of the Arts, and The Other Art Fair, Brooklyn. In 2019 Rutgers University acquired the painting, Natural Things, on display at the Camden Center of the Arts. Matier was born in South Korea in 1985. When she was three months old, she was adopted and raised in New Jersey, where she currently resides. Statement I create internal landscapes to illustrate the flow of energy to dispense overlooked ideas that subconsciously dictate my present thoughts and actions. I intend to create opportunities for self-growth, and in effect, illustrate the collective progression of humankind. I add mythical and alchemical symbols to punctuate self autobiographical images to serve as references for the metastory based on the transcendence of everyday lives into ideal states of being. I utilize all water-based mediums at a vigorous pace to execute a painting without interruption from second thoughts and trivial tangents. The interactions between the mediums transmute themselves into an image appearing out of an unknown origin. I simultaneously amplify the materiality through pastel mark-making and brushstrokes of acrylic to differentiate between the abstract subjects within a piece. The variety of visual elements intend to invoke harmony, translating into a sense of inner peace.
