About

Statement

Jackie Shatz’s figures evoke the earliest human creations—sculptures of female goddesses. They appear to reference works such as early Minoan and Cycladic sculptures of fertility goddesses from Ancient Greece: smooth, graceful, natural—an elegant icon, yet an animated one.

Press Release

Jackie Shatz’s works primarily depict human and humanoid forms that seemingly dance, twist and contort. Grouped together, the biomorphic shapes are leaning, reaching, floating and bending—as if engaged in an exuberant waltz.
