> STATEMENT

Shadows of memory, lost love and spiritual inquiry are the subjects of Jimmy Bleyer’s emotional mixed media works. Handcrafting panels from reclaimed woods, Jimmy favors acrylic, ink and spray paint to create his tightly executed ‘dreamland artifacts’. At once romantic, mysterious and illusory, Jimmy’s enigmatic work is featured in numerous collections across the US.

Currently Jimmy's primary focus is curation, with his newly formed Temple of Visions project. The Temple's inaugural exhibition at the Hive Gallery on January 3rd 2009 will be followed by six more events on an ascending journey through the chakras. more info at www.templeofvisions.com
