Jennifer Hocking – Multi Layered Sculpture
Born in 1963 to a family of artists and writers, Jennifer Hocking was raised in a home that encouraged creative exploration. Emerging from such a rich environment, she carried an intrinsic, critical sense of form, fluidity, color and beauty coupled with a thoughtful intellect. Drawing from both the mundane and profoundly spiritual, she left a career that offered a limited creative outlet to give birth to her son, an inspired time during which her creative energy demanded exploration. Working initially in highly detailed polymer clay ornaments and jewelry, she allowed herself to embrace a dynamic exploration of various mediums, including abstract painting and glass art. Recently settled into a new home and studio in the Arizona desert, she has returned to polymer clay with clarity of expression. Mosaic collages of shape, color and texture, her work incorporates components from past endeavors, including wire, glass and metal beads, handmade papers and pigment powders. Deeply intuitive and self-taught, she is an artist who's voice has grown and evolved from childhood through life's experiences, resulting in unique works that are at the same time highly individualized yet representative of common threads that unite us all.
