Jessica McCambly
Influenced by sentimentality, memory, and the landscapes of Southern California and the North Shore of Massachusetts, while also drawing from various histories, including Light and Space, Minimalism, Illuminated Manuscripts, and Luminism, the work is stirred by ideas of both physical and metaphysical splendor and phenomena.
​
I want the work to look like nothing, and then everything.
