Jennifer Asher

I am fascinated by the contrast when bold clean forms are set in the unrestrained beauty and chaos of nature. This is what I explore with my sculpture.
My works are small bits of architecture placed in the landscape. My intention is to
transform the viewerʼs environmental experience with intrepid, minimalist, abstract
forms. The interplay of reflection, shadow, positive and negative space are all
considered as each piece is composed and created.

I was born in New York City and raised in Marin County, just north of of San Francisco
in a family of artists and designers. After
receiving my Bachelor of Arts from UC Berkeley, I traveled the world producing and
directing television documentaries. My travels exposed me to extraordinary
architecture, art and landscapes. This influenced my decision to return to school and
study landscape architecture and art. I have since spent years using nature as my
palette, creating sculpture in the form of a garden as a landscape designer. This
evolved into my practice as a sculptor. Today, my contemporary metal sculpture
explores the bold impact of shape, texture and color within organic surroundings. I
currently work and reside in Los Angeles.

My contemporary metal sculpture is enjoyed in public and private gardens, parks, institutions, commercial spaces and unique properties around the US and abroad. I work closely with architects, designers, homeowners and collectors who are passionate about modern art and design.
