Turner Carroll Gallery will feature the newest artwork by Jeanette Pasin Sloan. The gallery will host an opening celebration with the artist from 4 to 6pm on Friday, September 25.

Jeanette Pasin Sloan’s upcoming exhibition Transfiguration offers the opportunity for deep introspection through a mercurial lens by contemplating how the nebulous worlds within us are made tangible when reflected in the exteriors of objects in our everyday environment.

Jeanette’s work is in numerous renowned collections around the globe. Her newest exhibition of 15 works is her most intense yet, representing a new chapter in her practice defined by breathtakingly masterful rendering and a heightened sense of motion in stillness.

On reflections: "Reflections never behave in ways we would predict. The reflections I saw in my kitchen helped me define my world…my complicated and often confusing domestic life. A simple cup can tell us a lot about who we are."

“From the time we are toddlers, reflections help define who we are. Mirrors, water, and reflective objects reveal what we look like and what the world around us looks like. But reflections shift, bend, and mess around in ways that make them hard to understand. Reflections become a metaphor for life. Sometimes, they clarify, but sometimes, they confuse. Life reflections can be clear or mysterious. Reflections can convey order or chaos.“

On the creative process: "Creating art is an act of will, an attempt to impose order on life's chaos. For me, making art was a remedy for the chaos of my domestic life. My life was messy, and I needed to create a sense of order and hope. Art became my form of prayer, a way to envision a life filled with goodness and structure. My work served as a place of meditation—a sanctuary without confusion, only grace. My paintings express disorder and chaos but ultimately convey hope, order, and beauty, transforming into a prayer that leads to peace.“
