Art for Humanity - Hope and Resilience

Wild Uganda Summer 2023 Collection

Throughout my life's journey as an artist, I've been deeply attuned to spirituality and the profound beauty that surrounds us. From my earliest memories, I found joy in creating captivating paintings, often drawing inspiration from Native American culture and the awe-inspiring landscapes that have touched my soul. My path eventually led me to the world of fashion design, where I merged my creative abilities seamlessly.

Today, I find myself at a juncture where these diverse experiences converge. It is within the enchanting realm of magical portraits that I sense my most authentic self blossoming. This retrospective exhibition is a humble reflection of the artistic odyssey that has shaped me, a journey I am privileged to share with you. In this virtual exhibition, you'll have the opportunity to click on the artwork to discover additional information, allowing you to delve deeper into the stories and inspirations behind each piece. You may also find that many of these pieces have taken on a new life as prints, a way to carry the spirit of the artwork with you, should you wish to.

Mi Casa Holiday - Playa del Carmen Y Tulum 2021

Jenni Rogers is an Australian artist and chef, who is based in the beautiful Byron Bay Hinterland, Australia and delights in creating paintings that combine two of her favourite things - cooking and art. Her beautiful art starts with the basic ingredients of flour, cream, organic eggs, and spices, which are transformed through watercolours, oils, and charcoals.

“When I think about food it pulls at my heartstrings.”

Jenni’s art brings a reminiscence of unique eateries, picturesque cafes, exotic street scenes, and homey kitchens where you can smell the mouth-watering aromas, taste the exotic and home-cooked favourites, and hear the audible joy of people enjoying a meal together.

Jenni bought her first cafe when she was just 16 years old - The Chelsea Teahouse in Avalon. It was only later in life that she discovered her love for painting. This love is what lead Jenni to go on to create artworks depicting beautifully presented food. Jenni is in her element whilst baking beautiful cakes, biscuits, and pastries and turning them into works of art.

She finds all aspects of food and cafes very emotional.

“I often associate memories with food. I know when I bake bread, I think of my dad in the kitchen baking these enormous loaves for our family, my Grandma and I making little, sweet jam mushrooms with icing and pastry stalks and my mum and I destroyed the kitchen through cake decorating, every bowl and appliance in the house was used. Our favourite recipes remind us of our loved ones – when we create them, in a way, it brings them back to us. My paintings are a way of capturing those images.”

Jenni’s creative process starts with feelings that she gains from the observation of these subjects. Then her mind starts to envision how it could look, usually painting from still life, photos or real life as in plein air.

“When I bake the texture and colours consume me - there is never-ending inspiration from these subjects. It’s life and it is a part of us all. You can’t live without food!”

Mi Casa Holiday - Playa Del Carmen Y Tulum 2012

RESILIENCE
A love of the outdoors instilled in me by my parents set me on a path of landscape painting, capturing the many moods and forms within the Australian bush. 

I remember visiting the National Gallery of Victoria when I was 17 on one of my regular visits during school holidays and there was an exhibition of contemporary drawing. In that show, I kept coming back to a charcoal drawing of a rock. It was strongly drawn, with subtle tonal rendering contrasting with stark black marks made by a determined hand. I loved the softness and delicacy, combined with the pure strength embodied in this drawing. It has had a lasting impact on me.

On looking back through my painting journals, a common thread started to emerge and dominate the imagery. I noticed that rocks were a recurring element and that they were the anchors of the paintings. 

When I've been out walking in the bush, I've taken hundreds of photos of rocks whenever I saw them nestled among vegetation or jutting defiantly out from an escarpment. I love the forms, curves, angles, folds, shards, layers, grit, colour, sediment, robustness, solidity, and strength of rocks. I admire their ability to weather the storms and withstand the vagaries of time and a challenging climate, and then finally nestle and adjust to their resting place. 

The rocks, geology, and timelessness of our land, its presence and resilience, its wonder; its witness to so much beyond each of us. This exhibition is a reflection of the rocks from the mountains to the sea.

Never did I think that the title of this exhibition would come to mean so much to me, particularly as my father recently passed away during the creation of some of these pieces.

Resilience is what we need in an ever-changing world.

Resilience

In our 1-year anniversary show, we wanted to look at the things that have influenced our 103 participating artists and their art.
Probably the most common question artists get asked is: "What inspired you to make this artwork?".
Throughout history artists have been inspired by their experiences, the environment around them, their culture, politics, and imagination. As the concept of art and creating art developed over time, artists began to be inspired by other artists and their art styles. Each artist has their own individual perspective, style, and creative vision resulting in art that is deeply personal to them.
So we can conclude that an artist's influence is as subjective as art itself.

"Lights and shadows" delves into my dual perspective on the world: one radiant, brimming with color and joy, the other, a somber, silent space filled with evocative imagery. The darker aspect, though quieter, speaks volumes through its clamorous imagery, never descending into despair. These opposing facets intricately intertwine, weaving a captivating emotional narrative for viewers to explore. Often inseparable, like the two sides of a coin, they depict the intricate interplay of emotions in our lives."
