Lasting Impressions: A Cessation of Existence
by Jennifer Basile
Lasting Impressions: A Cessation of Existence is a fusion of Basile’s one-of-a-kind process and admiration for the fragile beauty of our home state. This exhibition presents a body of work true to Basile’s message, as each natrual gem is replecated through singular editions, paralelling the finitie charactersitic of her subjects in an act of education and advocacy.
As Elisa Turner describes in Quiet Advocate for Beauty at Risk, exhibition catalogue essay, “Jennifer Basile captures shimmering vistas of Florida’s unique ecosystem, the Everglades, with sculptural depth and seductive detail. She transforms the sparkling path of swift moving light into nearly abstract, prismatic shapes. She renders this light as it incises patterns that appear and disappear among arching networks of mangroves. A master printmaker who infuses her innovative work with a passion for drawing and painting, Basile conjures the magical wonder of the Everglades in its unique and increasingly endangered wedding of water to land.”
We invite you to traverse through the terrain of Lasting Impressions: A Cessation of Existence by Jennifer Basile.
