Jennifer Anderson
Artist's Statement
My voice is not loud. I don't need to shout out my point of view.
What I want to say is quiet. It takes time. It's a whisper in your ear, a murmured thought. It's about human connection. It's about feeling and emotion and stillness. It's about the simple act of one person looking at another, with all the human complexity that entails.
