Artist Statement

“Part of what influences me is human relationships with the natural world. I wish to illustrate, that balance can be had in our exchanges with nature and to encourage a search for those connections. In exploring societal realities I hope to give voice to the unseen needs of those experiencing loss. I also hope to unveil the beauty that exists alongside these pains. At the beginning of every piece I focus on inserting emotion and motion and then work on top of those layers, imbuing the realities of our changing external and emotional scapes.” - Jacks
