Contemporary impressionistic triptych with bursts of color against pale backdrop
About the Item
The 'Where Angels Dance' triptych is a monumental work by British artist Jessica Zoob (three canvases each W150cm x H120cm). It offers a tranquil place of sanctuary in troubled times and is best described as healing, tranquil and meditative - words often used around the artist's work. Even when there are storms in evidence, metaphors for the turbulence of life, there is optimism too – light on the edge of a cloud or a shaft of sunshine breaking through the darkness. Subliminally, the artist's works are all about moving to a state of lightness or place of hope.
Zoob is fascinated by texture, distressed surfaces and graffiti on walls – the history these reveal. In her own work, she first she builds up layers and layers of oils which are then partly obliterated by continuous rubbing back, scraping or cutting into the surface. This ‘architectural’ process treads a fine line between her being in full control of the materials and allowing the unexpected to happen. The yang side to her more usually yin approach is when she uses pure pigments of colour to produce canvases bursting with excitement and energy.
She trained at Central School of Art and Nottingham University, during which time she travelled extensively, spending time on research in China and exploring other parts of Indonesia. For seven years, she worked as a theatre designer at countless venues including the Bristol Old Vic, the Royal National Theatre and Greenwich Theatre. Since 2000, she has worked exclusively as a British contemporary artist, now dividing her time between rural Sussex and her second home in Hong Kong.
Jessica Zoob exhibits regularly in Sussex and London, and her work is in private collections worldwide. Site-specific commissions include works for the entrances of The Lancasters at Hyde Park, a palace in Dubai and Richard Rogers’ NEO Bankside development. She has also been given solo shows in London, Cape Town and Hong Kong - and has also exhibited at Art Basel (Asia).
Helen Chislett Gallery represents artists, sculptors and makers across all disciplines.

- Monumental Triptych Oil on Canvas Panels Of New Orleans French Quarter HousesLocated in Dallas, TXPRESENTING a simply beautiful, monumental and imposing original work of contemporary art, namely, a Triptych oil on canvas panels of New Orleans Colonial/French Quarter Houses. Unsigned and undated, but most definitely inspired by the World Renowned New Orleans artist, James Michalopoulos. These were not painted by Michalopoulos, but were clearly inspired by him and his famous depictions of ‘wavey’ New Orleans houses. Also, they were created and painted in New Orleans, contemporaneously to when Michalopoulos was starting to become recognized, in the New Orleans (and greater) artworld. The 3 panels work perfectly together as a visual feast and ‘connected’ work of art. The panel on the left features a wavy blue, grey and yellow, French Quarter style 2 Story Wooden house, complete with Corinthian Style Columns, decks, railings, storm shuttered windows, etc. It has a deep blue sky with shimmering light reflections. The garden to the front, has steps leading to the house and has shrubs and flowers, that are continued into the 2nd or middle/center panel. The middle or center panel incorporates the other side of the garden plants etc for continuity and it features a single story pink, yellow and white wavy French Quarter style house, with fabulous decor and complete with decks, railings, storm shuttered windows, etc. It has a deep blue sky with shimmering light reflections and a white moon, emitting swirling patterns of light. The garden to the front, has steps leading to the house and has shrubs and flowers, that are continued into the 3rd or right panel. The right panel, features a wavy light...Category
