Born in 1990 in New York, Jerome lives and works in New York.
Through her works, Jerome explores how public places where people consciously and unconsciously share space and time represent the way we live and feel, and how generations build upon one another.
When she is outside, she observes objects (Cement, soil, and plants) that catch her eye and looks for patterns and rhythms in their textures and structures. She takes these inspirations and uses them in her paintings, adding her own imagination and improvisation. By breaking shapes down into dots, lines, prisms, or textured tubes, she reveals the hidden beauty in each object and encourages viewers to take a closer look.
Her fascination with objects is driven by unconscious impulses, religious archetypes and themes related to humanity’s connection to nature and plants as symbols of rebirth and everlasting life. As she looks and paints, she seeks sanctity and wonders in an increasingly atheistic, irreverent world.
