Artist Statement
Jennifer Arzt is an abstract artist based in California. She explores where movement and minimalism slam into color and bold marks. Her work plays with the idea that art can be felt in an instant, and how simple marks splashed across a canvas can communicate a full range of energy and emotion.
Each piece showcases expressive marks, color stains, and lassoed ribbons of paint, balancing control with chaos. The work dances on the edge of intention and chance, capturing moments that feel both playful and powerful.
