Inside the Studio

Visit with Jessica Simorte

Painter Jessica Simorte takes us on a tour of her Houston, Texas studio to share her newest works and thoughts on painting as place making.

Much of my practice is rooted in the phenomenology of space/place. I’m trying to create these environments that are a combination of the real and the imaginary. These places (in the work) are satisfying in ways my real environments are not.
