Rooted in quiet inquiry, Jimena’s work reflects on the tension between permanence and impermanence. Her practice moves through themes of memory, time, connection, and
the inner landscape, tracing the echoes of lived experience. Through layered surfaces and shifting forms, her practice evokes a deep awareness of the self and the transient nature of reality. She invites the viewer into a state of reflection—attuned to the invisible currents that move beneath the surface of consciousness and memory.
Themes: Transience, presence, longing, permanence, impermanence, distance, time, reflection, cycles, symbolism, symmetry
She received a BFA in Painting from Rhode Island School of Design
Based in Brooklyn, NY
