Painting and mixed media sculpture

you will be able to see in-progress works as well as completed pieces. Jennifer will answer questions and share about her process, favorite tools, and experiments.

Guests will also be invited to participate in a community abstract piece where visitors can paint one stroke, slash, or blurp. The result will be a one-of-a-kind piece created by SPOTLIGHT NORTH 2023 visitors!

I contemplate abstract locations in my paintings using shape and line. I root through liminal spaces purposefully, comfortable with ambiguity, instability, and disproportion. In this way I explore the expansive landscapes of time, space, and existence. My work is informed by maps, folk art, and graphic stylized art forms.

Jennifer Fernandez is a Cuban-American artist based in Seattle, Washington. She is the recipient of the Edwin T. Pratt Scholarship and is currently the Featured Artist at the Frye Art Museum Store. Her work has been exhibited throughout the Pacific Northwest.

Jennifer’s studio is on the second story of the outbuilding. There is an asphalt path the whole way, but visitors will need to be able to up a flight of stairs.
