Jess

Jess' unique imagery, evolved from mythology and fables both playful and profound, has long been admired by critics, curators and writers. Using paper collage or his eccentric painting techniques, Jess' pictures referenced ancient stories and invented symbols. Jess constructed a private world of delicate beauty and gentle absurdity.
