BIO
Jason's work blends expressive figurative imagery, archetypal insights, personal narratives, and illustrative techniques to engage with a human story.
Jason grew up between the local art museum and comic book shops, combining the rhythms of each walking the line between formal art and the fantastic space. Jason's art is exhibited nationwide and internationally in many fine galleries. In 2022, Jason Illustrated Grimm's Fairy Tales for Easton Press
Jason calls Ohio home, where he keeps a studio and teaches at a local art college. When he is not in the studio, wandering the nature preserve near his home.
“…This tension fuels Mowry’s storytelling. Each piece feels like a glimpse into a larger narrative, a dream told by a dreamer still in the midst of a dream; fraught and frozen, a moment of drama and crisis preserved in amber for one hundred years; each an oracular murmur of impending psychic annihilation–or a trilling song of complete rebirth.
We are left to wonder, are these figures facing oblivion or a magnificent metamorphosis? And in connecting to that deep wellspring of grace and thrumming vulnerability within ourselves, what, then, are we capable of?”
