Jessica Delorme, an artist residing in Vancouver, B.C. within the unceded territories of Musqueam, Skwxwú7mesh, and Tsleil-Waututh Nations, presents a selection of her paintings. Delorme’s artistic exploration centers around moments, both present and remembered, with a particular focus on sensory perception and bodily experience.

Navigating Dreams and Memories

Delorme draws inspiration from the spatial qualities inherent in dreams and memories. Her artistic endeavor is to capture the fluid logic of these experiences, translating them into tangible paintings. Utilizing color, form, and texture, she embarks on a journey of creation, aiming to construct visual spaces that evoke a sense of familiarity tinged with distance, akin to the recollection of a memory or a dream.

Embracing Nostalgia

Central to Delorme’s artistic process is the selection of color combinations that evoke a sense of nostalgia. She aims to imbue her artworks with a harmonious yet subtly disorienting quality, where vividness coexists with a sense of murkiness. Through this interplay of elements, Delorme seeks to convey the complexities of human perception and emotional resonance within her paintings.
