Artist Comments
The horse exudes power and gentleness, carrying a bird's nest on its back. The blue egg symbolizes vulnerability and new beginnings. The piece tells a narrative about strength and fragility. Inspired by the Japanese art Kintsugi, the eggshell texture reinforces the themes of resilience and transformation, celebrating the beauty in imperfection in all of life.
About the Artist
Artist Jennifer Ross finds inspiration in gathering and replicating fragments of nature. "Birds, nests, eggs, and horses represent my realization that life embodies a tension between wanting security and the love of freedom," says Jennifer. Through her art, she aspires to convey a healing power inspired by the living world. Jennifer initially aspired to follow her mother and grandfather's artistic path but took a detour and began a decade-long career working in art galleries, selling the artwork of others, and doing framing design. Eventually, her creative soul persisted. She began experimenting with small pastel pieces and later found her unique style in incorporating elements, such as broken eggshells, inspired by the Japanese art of mending pottery with gold called Kintsugi. Jennifer transforms her second-largest bedroom into a studio, immersing herself in the sounds of birds or her son's college radio program while working.
