Through new investigations in painting and installation, Angie Jennings continues to explore sentiments of existence upon astral planes. Historically, concepts and theories of astral planes have been linked to both mysticism and metaphysics, with a locus of the intangible. 

Notions of beyond the physical are frequently situated in Jennings' practice, often utilizing surrealist strategies and forms of thought. Additionally, the societal double bind of being seen and not in reference to one's identity and concepts of social death elicit the work.

 It’s through an active synthesis of thought and form that the works in Peekaboo propel into perceptual modalities akin to spirits, depicting realities just beyond reach.

Bio: Angie Jennings centers painting and drawing frequently in conversation with modes of performance, video and sculpture. She often investigates perception with an emphasis on identity, oppression and erasure. Formations of new mythologies linked to agency and mysticism are frequently employed. Her works have been exhibited at the Miller Institute of Contemporary Art at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, PA, Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, San Diego, CA, the Erie Art Museum, Erie, PA, Lehman College, Bronx, NY, Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art, Rancho Cucamonga, CA, Coaxial Art Foundation, Los Angeles, CA, Human Resources, Los Angeles, CA, Franconia Sculpture Park, Shafer, MN and the Museum of Contemporary Art Tucson, Tucson, AZ, among others.  Jennings received her MFA in Visual Arts from the University of California San Diego, and a BS in Art Education from South Dakota State University.
