About the Artwork:

“Earthy Maison is a whimsical being playing to be part animal, part human, part house with a consciousness that connects all of them as one, and with mother earth. The long tongue coming out of the door represents an exhaustion from creation and the overuse of its resources in all of those three aspects of existence.” – Veronica Jaeger

About the Artist:

(Artist Bio)

Veronica Jaeger was born and grew up in Venezuela and moved to the United States in 2000. She received a M.F.A degree from the University of Texas Pan-American in 2006. Her work has been exhibited and awarded in solo and group exhibitions in galleries and museums throughout the United States and abroad.

The main focus of her work is to explore the meaning of consciousness through an ephemeral world of imaginary subjects merging with different elements: geometric shapes, lines, bubbles, ears, feet, eyes, clouds, heads. These elements symbolize transformation, life, death, and the impermanence of all forms and all things. Her ideas are mostly expressed using oil paints on canvas and drawings on paper.

(Artist Statement)

Making something out of nothing along with the feeling of disconnecting from the reality of the everyday life is what keeps me delving into the process of drawing and painting. There, in my invented world, imaginary portraits merge with different elements: geometric shapes, lines, bubbles, ears, feet, eyes, clouds. These elements symbolize consciousness, transformation, life, death, and the impermanence of all forms and all things. Imagining there is a common thread in all that exists, brings a playfulness and ephemerality in my work that I parallel to life and that I try to capture in my creative practice.
