Quest

Jessica Libor’s work is about the feminine protagonist creating her own personal mythology and meaning. Through using the symbology and tropes found within fairytales, she explores the process of self discovery that the heroine faces as she turns inwards to find her own strength and identity. Libor is a multi award winning American artist who received her Master of Fine Arts from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 2014, having also studied at the Florence Academy of Art and the Grand Central Atelier. She works in her studio along the Main Line of Philadelphia. She is also host for the Inspired Painter Podcast, teaches at the Visionary Artist’s Salon, and curates at Era Contemporary Gallery.

You are invited to join us for the festive public opening reception for Quest, the solo exhibition for Jessica Libor featuring her new paintings and the debut of her new novel. Enjoy drinks and light bites as you browse the art available for purchase, and meet the artist! There is a medieval old world magic in the air for this exhibition: heroines you might recognize from folk and fairy tales appear in communion with wild surroundings of nature; silver lakes, knotted forests and lavender sunset dappled skies. Dark and light are balanced as the protagonists move through their environments. The paintings are mostly oil on panel, done in a classical style and accented with gold and silver leaf, ranging from eight inches to six feet in size. Also on sale will be signed copies of Jessica Libor’s new novel, a young adult fairy tale.
