David Lusk Gallery JARED SMALL
Jared Small shares the beauty of his hometown of Memphis in dreamlike paintings that collapse space and time, pushing viewers into an ethereal atmosphere. Small’s saturated paintings possess strong narrative sensibilities.
Small’s practive skillfully navigates the delicate interplay between otherworldly settings and hyper-realistic subjects. Individual pieces, depicting historic homes and delicate flowers, inspire contemplation on decay and rebirth, the passage of time, and the beauty in the ordinary and human experience.
Jared Small, born in Memphis in 1980, attended Overton High School and the University of Memphis. He has participated in numerous exhibitions in Tennessee and a major solo exhibition at the Huntsville Museum of Art. His work is featured in the permanent collections of the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art and the Huntsville Museum of Art, as well as multiple private collections in Memphis and across the Southeastern U.S.
