My work is about coming to terms the visceral loss of childhood dreams. The sets I am building now are bright, theatrical and dramatic. I mix moments of childhood freedom with the sharp edges of an independence you are not prepared for. I am making a drama out of ordinary moments. These are visual metaphors for the crushing lows of abandonment and the joyous heights of a potential salvation. Love and loss, lost and found. You can find my work in numerous publications including Gastronomica’s February issue and the last issue of GRLSQUASH.

Jaina Cipriano

Jaina Cipriano is creating visual metaphors for emotions she has trouble defining. Without the help of photoshop she builds physical enviornments that open her models up to becoming part of something bigger. This primes the space for an authenticity that is so raw and visceral it brings you back to your own memories. Jaina’s work takes the shape of a dream you wake up already forgetting, tasting only the vivid edges while the center dissolves.
