Salt Air

Salt Air captures the fresh, breezy stillness of a quiet morning by the sea. Soft aquas and coastal blues mingle in layered washes that echo the slow drift of mist and salt spray, evoking the peaceful hush of ocean air rolling in from the dunes. Over this tranquil background, a constellation of fine hand drawn circles shimmers across the canvas - delicate, organic marks that speak to rhythm, tide and time.

Jennifer Bell's artwork is an invitation to enter a world of colour, texture and detail. Her unique artistic vision stems from her experience of a rare neurological condition that enhances her perception of patterns and often over looked details in the world around us.

Jennifer's artistic journey is deeply intertwined with her experience of a rare neuro-ophthalmological condition that creates persistent visual disturbances. These disturbances are reflected in her work through a dynamic and energetic quality, with a bold colour palette and intricate details that invite the viewer to become immersed in the beauty of the artwork.

Appearing as a fine veil of dancing dots, flashes of light and kaleidoscopic colour that can never be turned off; it has been suggested that artists such as Georges Seurat, Van Gogh, and Yayoi Kusama, known for their innovative use of dots and patterns, may have also experienced symptoms of what has been termed - visual snow disorder.

Repetition is a crucial element in Jennifer's artwork. The use of repeated abstract marks and shapes serves to depict the constant visual noise she experiences on a daily basis. Jennifer provides a glimpse into her unique perception of the world through her art.

Inspired by the endless possibilities that arise when colours and patterns come together in abstract work, Jennifer's artwork also focuses on the intricate real life details and patterns that can be found in both microscopic and aerial perspectives. Her paintings are not just mere representations of her seemingly chaotic visual world, but a celebration that beauty can be found in even the simplest thing. Through her work, she hopes to inspire others to find joy and wonder in the the everyday, to pause and appreciate the beauty in the seemingly mundane.

She holds a degree in Fine Art and has a rich background in the art world, having previously run her own gallery in New Zealand's picturesque Wellington suburb of Island Bay. Today, she is a full-time independent artist working from her sunny Brisbane studio, and her work is represented in private and corporate collections around the world, from Australia and New Zealand to North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
