Re:View's writer, Krysta Stone, asks artist Jaclyn Schanes about the different influences guiding her work and what inspires her to make art. Schanes will be presenting a one-night art performance piece at Re:View on Saturday, July 31.
Re:Writer: What compels you to make art?
JS: To be honest, I feel I am stuck in an itchy transition. Irritable as all hell, any sentence/word can send me roaring these days. Odd circumstances led me to my current latitude and longitude. I feel like I am the rosacea patch on someones face. Swollen and awkward and flaming. The only escape I have is to paint my way out of this mess. Or patch the face with paint to cover up the red. With hope, the art will send me beaming into the future.Re:Writer: What or who are you biggest influences?
JS: A lot to me is fleeting, yes, but there are images, sounds, people, that the tentacles of my heart suction onto. Little do they know they are deep in my insides growing bacteria. First and foremost, there is Hope Kroll. On the family tree she is located above and to the left of my mother, my aunt. History has lead our family through a tumultuous tunnel that is very prominent in our minds. Since a young girl, Hope has had the ability to express herself though all different forms of art. I consider Hopes' work morbid with a twist on delicate beauty. I've been subconsciously exposed to her art since a babe. How could it not affect me? I feel I too have that grim expression, though maybe mine is a little more sugarcoated but comes from the same place, same blood, same history. Beyond art influence, there is sound. What I produce usually is viable to have come from the music I am listening to. Specific sounds, specific bands have resonated in my head. The Pixies, Hum, Jawbreaker- to Tchaikovsky, Gershwin, and the one song my father wrote on piano, spin and undulate around my mind until they mix and bake my next goods. Sounds stir up a batchful of emotions in me. Sounds irritate me to no extent too. Sounds offer me the kind, happy release as well. There isn't another form of expression that irks/excites me more...
Well don't know whats going on but its not a Good way to do this. in my opinion we have to look again about this issue
