Artist Statement
Jennifer Hodges
Born and raised in Holderness, New Hampshire, Hodges developed a natural connection with the landforms and waterways of the White Mountains. Since leaving Squam Lake in 1984 to attend UNH she has completed an MFA at Yale, lived in New York City and is currently settled in Maine. Hodges' paintings are founded on experimentation. She uses house-painting brushes, glue spreading trowels, window squeegees, and paint rollers to make precise and specific forms that represent places in the landscape. The paintings shown at Patricia Carega this summer are works from a series of mountain paintings. Her work is shown also in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, Boston, and Los Angeles.
