"The dream of artistswhich is simply the dream of friends and lovers, magnifiedis to plant themselves in other people's heads" -Tad Friend on John Lurie
I am the third generation of artists in my family following in the footsteps of my mother and my grandmother.
Born in New York, raised just north of Manhattan, I had the opportunity to visit the museums of New York City on a fairly regular basis. The Met was my favorite. I wanted to live there, like in that childrens novel, "From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler"; I daydreamed about getting lost and having to spend the night sleeping with the sarcophagi or in an elegantly made up room in the American Decorative Arts wing. My imagination went wild imagining entire families and their interactions within those spaces.
I am always thinking about things I could make, build, create; my brain is constantly working; sometimes causing sleepless nights. If I could afford to just make art, and not work, I would, in a heartbeat. As it is right now I cant imagine living long enough to actually have time to create all of the things swimming around in my little head.
This body of work is just part of what goes on creatively for me. Paintings are what I do most because I have the space for it. Welding and metal fabrication is what I love to do most but it is slow going for lack of safe space to do it in.
I am searching for the Peggy of the 2000's. Where is our Peggy Guggenheim of today?
My name is Jes Muse. And this is some of my art.
Thank you.
