Jennifer Noxon

Jennifer returned to visual art eighteen years ago, after many years as a language teacher and performing songwriter. Unsurprisingly, her visual work embodies a certain musicality; words like rhythm, shape, line, texture, pattern, harmony, and even controlled chaos come to mind. Whether it’s abstract or representational, for Noxon painting is a process that requires intuition, instinct, observation, and experience.

For Jennifer, the process of creating is like breathing - be it art, music or a delicious meal. It’s how I try to make sense of this chaotic and beautiful world. She hopes that what she creates resonates with people on some level - providing hope, a spark, some kind of meaning.

For many years, Jennifer has been exploring the qualities of water and its ability to reflect, suspend, reveal, and conceal. People, objects and experiences in our day-to-day lives affect us on both conscious and subconscious levels. In her more recent paintings, she has thought a lot about how we are connected, by relationship, memory, and time, to everything that has come before us, and everything that will come after us.
