Power Post 4!
Nathan swears Jamie punched him in the chest after viewing NOW-ID’s Nowhere. It wasn’t soft, but it wasn’t that hard either. It was a punch of joy. Jamie does that, for us, puts us back, makes us think and laugh and grounds us all at the same time, and we LOVE that we are playing together.
On June 25, Jamie will show a dozen(ish) original works as part of our setting, an outdoor gallery on an outdoor gallery, and they will be for sale along with prints.
Jamie Clyde is a text-based conceptual artist addressing critical issues and socio-political disparities embedded in American culture. With humor and satire, she is juxtaposing digital and painting techniques, developing a personal practice working with film transfer, digital photography, paint and poetry to critique imbalances of power and culture consumptions. Jamie draws from vintage magazines, old Hollywood imagery and Pop Art perspectives to create concept series built on collective psychological experiences. In her work, she is the observer and the player simultaneously. Her messages dig further into narratives tackling inequality, feminism, collective consumption habits, and climate change.
Jamie Clyde studied at the University of Utah. After receiving a BFA in photography, she moved to New York City to pursue her art career. Her work has been presented in solo exhibitions and numerous group exhibitions across the country. Jamie has been featured in Hyperallergic, Artnet News and Untitled magazine. She now works and lives in Salt Lake City, Utah. #nowidworks#mavenslc #saltlakecity #allyup2022 #nowidslc #powerwomen
