My work is outwardly influenced by rustic architecture & everyday resourcefulness or frugality in rural country living. Philosophies that evoke an appreciation of imperfection, such as wabi sabi, also inspires my work ethic. I work variously in paint, print & collage. Creating collages from tiny fragments is my therapy, a solace, absorbed by shapes, colours & textures, where edges overlap, contrast or combine. In life we also metaphorically re-build & repair, and these philosophical musings filter into the ‘fabric’ of my work.

Biography
Jazz Green studied fine art at Farnham and printmaking at the Royal College of Art in London. While studying at the RCA she was awarded an Erasmus scholarship to study for a term at Athens School of Fine Arts. Four months spent in Athens and travelling around Greece to some of its small islands was an influence in the development of her art. After graduating from the RCA she was selected for the ‘New Contemporaries’. She later moved from London to live in rural Suffolk.

Jazz Green is also a member of The Suffolk Group.
