ART @ IRREGARDLESS
Jennifer Clifton
My art presents oppositions—the natural against the synthetic, the individual against the
modern hum, independence against the energy of regularity, action against thought,
self-generated female power against an inescapable yet still attractive backdrop, past
against present. My figurative 2D work—paintings and pencil drawings with
wallpaper—present subjects inspired by photos from the vaudeville era and elsewhere
in the last century, or invented, surrounded by mod wallpaper or painted patterns. Color
is unashamed, defiance is pleasure, with an edge of surreal juxtaposition. The
backgrounds suggest a struggle with an exterior but can also depict the interior energy
of the central figure—viewers can decide the balance.
