Jasmine Gregory

Through painting, sculpture and installation, Jasmine Gregory (*1987 in Washington, D.C.) explores the tensions of artistic production within a narrative system on the dominant values and symbols of hierarchy and power that permeate the social space. Jasmine Gregory’s paintings and sculptures are rich in historical references and are inspired by a critical and at times sarcastic reflection on painting as an artistic medium in today’s world.

My painterly ability and style switch between academicism and amateurism, highly stylized and playful, dark and comedic to create unconventional relationships within the composition that challenge and critique the traditional discourse of painting.

Solo exhibitions include A little Newer, A Little Better, A Little Sooner Than is Necessary, SOPHIE TAPPEINER, Vienna (2023), Mommie Dearest, Istituto Svizzero, Milan, Heirlooms, King’s Leap, New York City (2022), Home Improvements, Park View / Paul Soto, Brussels (2021), Trouble at Casa Amor, Karma International, Zurich (2020). Recently, her work has been included in group shows held at Fitzpatrick Gallery, Paris (2023), Karma International, Zurich, Centre D’Art Contemporain, Genève, Kunsthalle Fri Art, Fribourg (2022).
