About Jesse Reno:

Contemporary-primitive – of the present, searching for understanding through introspection, a basic wisdom of things based on connection to
ones ideas ideals and dreams rather then institutional, or technological knowledge based on intracacies. Abstract Narrative – a visual narrative derived from the interpritation of creations made up of intuative actions manifesting as abstract shapes, forms and emotions. a process without preconcieved plans just a thought and feeling following one after the other to become an idea.. changing directions as forms emerge to find an idea free from judgement, something true in and of itself. from this a world of personal myth, iconography, symbols and beings are created.
