Meg Jorgenson is a self- taught painter based in Los Angeles whose meditative works explore the congruence between natural figuration and poetic abstraction. Her paintings develop through an intuitive process of layering, repetition, and material response, allowing a sense of light to move through the work and create an atmospheric presence that feels suspended within the surface.
Her practice is rooted in experimentation, with a focus on natural pigments derived from clay, rock, and botanicals. Her material approach draws from ancient parietal painters, who used clay-derived pigments as a means of communication, while the pioneering female artists of spiritualism shape her interest in art as a conduit for the unseen and ephemeral. Moving between the tangible and the subconscious, her work invites the viewer into a transcendental landscape that evolves with the beauty of attention.
