Jason Jay Stevens

Jason Jay Stevens is an artist, designer, and a maker of music and sound. His 3-D work includes interactive museum exhibitions, furniture and sculpture. Today, he composes on laptop computer for sculpture and scores for video.

London-based contemporary filmmaker Isaac Julien, who got to know Linda Pace during his Artpace residency in 1999, said that Pace will be remembered as “the artist’s collector. By that I mean because not only was Linda a patron of the arts and of individual artists, she was herself an artist,” said Julien.

During the SeeingArtSanAntonio  November 3rd tour, we will have the privilege of viewing a small part of the Pace collection as well as visiting CHRISpark, a one-acre public green space created next to the Linda Pace Foundation. The park features a rhythmic layout of lush foliage and delightful encounters with art designed by contemporary artist, Teresita Fernandez. Please visit www.chrispark.org.

James Hetherington

I work in a variety of media, including painting and assemblage, but I am predominantly a sculptor working with remnants of structural steel and common components shaped from stock material. A spiritual aspect evolves out of the balance of the combined steel forms derived from simple production line materials reduced to their essence to become meditative sculptural instruments.

My current work focuses on skin as a metaphor for identity and the fragile boundary between the outer world of physical appearance and the interior one of private and psychic complexity.

Wesley Harvey

The objects and figurines of kitsch and cute carry a huge load of history and stories. This baggage usually sits quietly upon a shelf for the life of the object. I want to examine the past of these everyday, mundane objects and put their stories into my own personal narratives. I have become intrigued with the idea of a story within a story. As I walk down the aisles at the thrift store, I look to see who shares their story with me and is willing to become part of a new narrative that may or may not incorporate the previous history.
