Hypnotic colour and structure bloom and pulse in Jen Stark’s Shape Shift.

The artist’s first large-scale lenticular combines formal and organic shapes to create an optical patchwork collage, translating her digital animations into physical form. The lenticular lens allows the print to change when viewed from different angles. Striking sunset gradients, vivid shapes found within a garden and rich hues of underwater sea life all act as starting points for Stark’s dynamic process – an encyclopaedia of disparate geometries.

“I wanted the shapes to seem like they were breathing, pulsing, and expanding into infinity.”

Jen Stark5 collaborationsLos Angeles-based artist Jen Stark creates unmissable optical illusions that leave your senses spinning. Part meditation, part acid trip, her in-your-face abstraction is designed for all audiences spanning the art world and popular culture. She’s done collaborations with the likes of Vans, Facebook and Google, and in 2015 her work even provided the backdrop to Miley Cyrus' performance at the MTV VMAs. Jen works across painting, installation, sculpture and animation, inspired by Op Artists like Bridget Riley and Marina Apollonio, as well as the Finish Fetish artists of 1960s Los Angeles. Altered states of consciousness and spirituality are key conceptual forces and sources of inspiration in Jen's artworks, stating: "For thousands of years our ancestors cultivated this amazing culture and psychedelic ceremonies and I think our culture (especially the west) has lost hold of these beautiful secrets and a deep connection to nature."

Absolutely gorgeous! I have admired Danielle McKinney's work and Shelter is exceptionally beautiful. The colors, the texture - I was delighted when I opened the box. The frame and floating presentation is also perfectly matched to the beauty of the piece. Also, well done on the shipping - it came thoroughly protected. Thank you!
