Artist

Jason Scott Hoffman

Opening Reception Thursday, March 12th 6-9pm

The Lift announces Jason Scott Hoffman to exhibit months of March and April at The Lift. Opening Reception Thursday, 12th 6-9pm. 
 

Artist statement: I am compelled to create pieces of visual art reflecting internal visions the effects of which are personally visceral. While I do make use of allusion and homage in some pieces, in general there is no secret language to decode in most of my work, no personal mythology to unravel. I hope that the viewer is struck by my best works with a sense of mystery that doesn't demand to be understood.

I am not a surrealist, yet my images are illiteral-new realities that never existed except in my mind's eye, realized through the use of multiple photographic captures and temporal sculpture blended into worlds that can't quite be, but are.
