Jay’s work spreads across paintings, sculptures, prints and film. He is interested in the scale of life, natural phenomena, and inquiries into mankind and nature. His making process doubles up as a deeper manifestation of spiritual inquiry in his identity.
Jay has also co-founded an artist collective Paradise Now, an experimental multidisciplinary project grounded on their friendships and personal stories.
