This piece is of my grandmother’s home, where she used to play many different imaginary games with me as a child. I wanted to create an artwork that represented not that room exactly but the feeling the room gave me when I was little. Lately I have been working with many mediums in an effort to create a textual feeling that exhibits a playful and visually interesting experience for the viewer.

Rory Jackson (she/her)

Rory is a third-year Collaborative Arts major with a minor in Studio Art. Her focuses include acting, performance, and painting. She has been painting since high school as well as focusing on many other mediums of art. She had a gallery opening in Los Angeles in the summer of 2021, where she showed 70 pieces of her artwork, 60 of them were sold.

Artist Statement

With my artwork, I am currently focusing on using textures and levels within my paintings. I want to disassemble the idea of my art on the wall being sacred, I like the idea of people being able to touch and textually experience my paintings. I am in performance as well so currently in my art I am working on the joining of these two mediums in some way. I want the viewer to be able to interact with the art in front of them and if that means touching it to fully experience the piece I want to encourage that.
