Jesse La Flair's Interests
|
| General | In life, time lends itself to specific moments; Jesse La Flair’s work captures the emotional experience and beauty within those moments. He expresses and intrigues through questions that he asks in his creations. La Flair Says “I lose myself in hours of painting a specific moment in hopes of creating an emotional experience that projects the beauty within that particular moment or thought.”
La Flair is a public driven artist who makes it a point to present his work and experiences to the community. Upon graduating form the State University of New Paltz with a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Sculpture, he will have had shown in and out of the city of New York, as well as out of the state and country going as far as Russia, Spain, Sweden and Thailand.
Jesse La Flair’s ability to successfully employ a wide rage of technical and formal approaches has granted him a vast field of opportunity in his explorations and creations. La Flair Says “Art is a silent conversation between the artist and the viewer, which sometimes can make quite a bit of noise.”

About me:
JESSE LA FLAIR
ARTIST STATEMENT
It is a gift as an artist to have the ability to explore and bring attention to the fine details in life that are often overlooked. Sometimes the closer you are to something, the harder it is to see. In my work I choose to investigate universal experiences of life and self by creating representational metaphors that explore emotion, life, death and natural human development in abstract ways. For this body of work I have chosen to explore these ideas through the use of video. I simultaneously utilize the inherent characteristics of film and video as well as the instinctive characteristics of the human body and common emotions. In addition to using physical objects, I often work with common phenomena’s such as the persistence of vision and deterministic chaos or chaos theory. My work is meant to spark emotion and commence a silent conversation between the viewer and the piece. Emotions are universal, the world influences, the mind reacts, and the eyes project. As we progress forward from adolescence to adulthood, we are forced to form our often-different personalities into the shape of one. Each person in the world has the ability to perceive and experience life in a his/her own way. However, we will all be presented with opportunities and disappointments, achievements and regrets, the honor of life and the unavoidable fate of death. For me, it is truly a gift, to have this opportunity in presenting my view and provoking self-reflection in the minds of my audience.
