The central preoccupation unifying all my work is an engagement with the practice of the old masters, particularly those of the Baroque and Rococo periods. Their perfection of craft, their exploration of narrative modes, and their explicit connection to history and politics are a source of continuing fascination and inspiration to my work. Embedding contemporary iconography and themes in a classical figurative craft, I seek to tease out the hidden relationships and continuities between classical art and current culture.

a solo show by Jill Sylvia May/June 2011
Jill Sylvia was born in Plymouth, Massachusetts in 1979, and currently lives and works in San Francisco, California. The artist use traditionally registries for the recording of financial data. These papers the past accommodate the data so that the accounting information are compiled for the analysis for profits and losses. It’s the material of the economy. The artists cut-hand and takes part in a process of removal of sweeps used after the compilation only leaving the skeletal architecture of the sheet, from which it’s possible to observe the evocative scultorea lightness, the empty one. The dumb origin transforms, rhythmically organized the full loads and the empty are like a scanner for time and space, the rigor persists, but it becomes rich of a sensual poetry.
