Artist Jaclyn Conley: “Painting is not a loud voice” | Louisiana Channel

We visited Jaclyn Conley in her studio outside New Haven and met an artist who wanders between the grand masters of painting and her contemporary images of reflection and silent protest. “I would be a novelist over a documentarian. I love research. I love finding facts. I love gathering information, history, and ideas. And yet, that space of imagining is ultimately what's really important. And I like that openness, that invitation for someone to enter the picture, relate, and empathize. I do hope that people are able to reflect on their own time, looking at these pictures.” “I don't know that I see these paintings as proposing any kind of answers. I do remain hopeful, although it's difficult at times. I think there are countries, but then there's people who make up the countries, and we're part of that.” “Another thing that has been introduced in the paintings recently is the issue of or the idea of change, the idea of cycles, the idea of things happening over and over again, and thinking about progress as not a destination. And seeing that not as a failure, but as somehow a beautiful part of being a human.” Jaclyn Conley (b. 1979) was born in Ontario, Canada, and is now based in New Haven, Connecticut. Conley has exhibited nationally and internationally at venues including The Painting Center, NY, NurtureArt, NY, Projective City, Paris, Wynick-Tuck Gallery, Toronto, and the Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum, Ridgefield CT. Conley has been an artist in residence at NXTHVN, the Vermont Studio Center, and The Emily Carr University of Art and Design in Vancouver, Canada. She was the recipient of a Connecticut Office of the Arts Fellowship, Canada Council for the Arts Visual Arts Project Grants, an Elizabeth Greenshields Award, and a Fellowship from the Sam and Adele Golden Foundation.
