Ryan Graff Contemporary is excited to present Jupiter Femina, a solo exhibition from artist Jeremy Mann.
In this evocative body of work, the dance of the dual muses of feminine essence and planetary phenomena brings light to new creative explorations.
Jupiter Femina evolved from Mann's purposes of improving a method of preliminary technique, while also utilizing an improvisational practice of harmonic design and destruction. This exploratory intersection was catalyzed by both the loss of his studio and his beloved cat, prompting Mann to search for a new visual language more integrated with subconscious emotional expression.
Visual references for the color harmonies of Jupiter Femina are derived from Mann's concurrent interests in a beautifully complex mixture of Mayan glyphs, shapes, arrangements, light, energy, and physics, and the evidence of these phenomena as visualized through the great mysteries of the solar system being brought to light by the heroic minds of our many nations' space programs.
The feminine power of strength and beauty, bold and mysterious, seductive and melancholic, destructive and life-giving, reflects in the colors and power of nature, whether near to us in the petals of flowers and shapes of human figures or across millions of miles of vast and empty space, swirling in the colors of Jupiter's sunsets and empty planes of distant seething moons.
It's in this melding of the mysteries of the infinite cosmos and the infinite harmonies of feminine grace that the images of Jupiter Femina are born.
