Standing Still, Small Works 2021
This series of highly textured mixed media small works is created to bring awareness of climate change and its impact on our oceans' health.
"I challenged myself to create these small works because all of my works are much larger. I feel we have reached a tipping point in terms of the continued degradation of our environment. We are standing still in terms of world leaders to do the right thing for the future of humankind. We can go one way or another."
I have always been inspired by the ocean and the ever-changing wave patterns. I am mesmerized by the translucent and glimmering color palette found when viewing from the shoreline.
Jay's current body of work has evolved over the years. She manipulates wet paper pulp processed from newsprint, brown sack, and office paper to imitate ocean waves. She also incorporates recycled plastic packaging for the abstract coral.
