Inspired by Californian landscapes, Guidi’s chromatic and geometric paintings reflect her interest in religion, spirituality and the cosmos
American artist Jennifer Guidi’s (born 1972) immersive work operates within both the physical and metaphysical world. Her abstract compositions reflect the natural world both literally and visually as she mixes sand with paint to depict arresting natural and cosmological phenomena. Her local Los Angeles surroundings are palpable through her work: the immense skies of California filled with the fleeting color of sunrises and sunsets, and the mountains she passes daily on the way to her studio. Her practice is also deeply rooted in what lies beyond physical surroundings, in the spiritual and metaphysical worlds. Each of her paintings is an “energy source” indebted to the power of vibrations, and her works incorporate recurring symbols related to Western and Eastern religions, ancient civilizations and the esoteric sciences. This monograph is a survey of Guidi’s work to date, including her most recent paintings.
