I feel that this exhibition was a significant milestone in my career, it was my first time exhibiting my work in Chicago and it was an incredible opportunity to deepen my professional relationship with Sheri Rush and with Epiphany Centre. I was able to meet other artists from the area, present my art to a new audience, explore new markets for my work, and connect with local galleries. It was amazing to exhibit with Sheri Rush and learn what inspires her paintings and how she creates them. We learned we have a very similar color palette that we gravitate towards and both enjoy using high flow paints + spray paint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"663\" src=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Chicago-exhibition-6-small-1024x663.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17422\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Chicago-exhibition-6-small-1024x663.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Chicago-exhibition-6-small-300x194.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Chicago-exhibition-6-small-768x497.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Chicago-exhibition-6-small-1536x994.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Chicago-exhibition-6-small.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-afd610778884b06084aab7e452f9aae2\"><em>A view of <\/em>Situations of Liminality and Transformation<em> at Epiphany Center for the Arts in Chicago, works by myself and Sheri Rush.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>For the exhibition, my contribution was a series of 7 paintings (4\u2019 x 5&#8242;) inspired by the New Brunswick forest, with a focus on abstract expressionism, bold colours, and organic mark-making. I took inspiration from Maud Lewis adding Forget Me Not flower references over top of one my abstract works. These are my favorite flowers that grow in my front yard and when I was making my paintings for the exhibition, I would go outside each morning and look at them, so it became more and more evident that they had to appear in my work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Art is important to me because it is a great way to help us understand our surroundings in this world and it helps me to communicate my thoughts + feeling in an abstract way. When I paint, it\u2019s like time stands still and it becomes very meditative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"895\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/jared-betts-Scorpion-and-the-Flower-photo-Mathieu-Leger-895x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17424\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/jared-betts-Scorpion-and-the-Flower-photo-Mathieu-Leger-895x1024.jpg 895w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/jared-betts-Scorpion-and-the-Flower-photo-Mathieu-Leger-262x300.jpg 262w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/jared-betts-Scorpion-and-the-Flower-photo-Mathieu-Leger-768x879.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/jared-betts-Scorpion-and-the-Flower-photo-Mathieu-Leger-1342x1536.jpg 1342w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/jared-betts-Scorpion-and-the-Flower-photo-Mathieu-Leger.jpg 1748w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 895px) 100vw, 895px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-text-color has-link-color has-small-font-size wp-elements-bde22723b3f8a54a1ef2fb6da8681740\">Scorpion and the Flower. <em>Photo Credit: Mathieu L\u00e9ger.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>I think the greatest challenge about being a working artist in New Brunswick is that there aren\u2019t as many gallery openings or as many networks as there are in bigger cities. I also think that the greatest challenge is also the greatest advantage in many ways. I think the forests, ocean and national parks make for incredible inspiration. We are so fortunate to be able to drive 10 \u2013 15 minutes in any direction and be able to be by a lake, on a forest nature trail or sitting by the sea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Collaboration has recently been playing a large role in my work. In 2021, I did a collaboration with Nova Scotia seascape artist Katharine Burns while attending Pouch Cove artist residency in Newfoundland. In 2022, I did a collaboration with New Brunswick forestscape artist Emily Phillips in Moncton. And this year I am doing a collaboration with tattoo artist Bry Simms merging abstract art, tradition Japanese dragons and bio mech. I feel like each of these collaborations was so special and it was a great way for me to connect with friends in a creative way learning about how two different styles can be merged together to form a whole new style of art.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text is-stacked-on-mobile\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"926\" height=\"946\" src=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Headshot-photo-jared.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17430 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Headshot-photo-jared.png 926w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Headshot-photo-jared-294x300.png 294w, https:\/\/artsnb.ca\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jared-Betts-Headshot-photo-jared-768x785.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 926px) 100vw, 926px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p><strong>Jared Betts<\/strong>&#8216;s paintings are\u00a0included in numerous corporate and\u00a0private collections in\u00a0Paris, Toronto, Montreal,\u00a0Los Angeles,\u00a0China, Australia\u00a0and\u00a0Iceland.
