Read MoreJessie Georges grew up in a bilingual surrounding. Subtle differences in tradition and ways of thinking are visible and observed. Used objects have a memory. They carry fragments of history: of its use, its user, the surroundings in which it exists. They are a piece of reference for our cultural memory.
By constructing an image or sculpture with those objects as media she translates a Western cultural thinking and the way it changes trough time. Perception, handling perception and how it evaluates in time are fascinating to her. There is always something that stays elusive and incomprehensible, that stays open. Making work with this concept, she offers a possible narrative, a new possible story to the viewer.
She studied a variation of
media, going from theatre and music to photography, movies, ceramics and more. J. Georges got her Masters degree in Liberal Arts at the Mad-fac in Belgium in 2014. She works as an art and ceramics teacher. Highlights of her practice include several publications by renowned artists among which Michaël
Borremans and selections for international events including the biennial for
contemporary textiles art ‘Scythia’ in Ukraine.
