Jaclyn (Jackie) Sanders Studio
Transforming life’s mundane moments into memorable experiences, my work explores the constant push and pull that each of us face in our day to day lives. As I layer and manipulate abstract gestural marks with crisp geometric lines, my work explores the in-betweens - the space between tension and calm, light and shadow, gestural and rigid marks, and the resistance and release of control.
Encouraging others to actively choose the future they are creating, my mission is to help others feel more connected to their minds, bodies, and the spaces in which they exist.
Born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland, I have always been drawn toward geometric shapes and bold colors. On a mission to further explore this attraction and curiosity, I studied at Virginia Tech where I earned my BA in Studio Art, B.F.A in Art History and M.F.A in Material Culture and Public Humanities. My current studio is based in Artspace in downtown Raleigh.
