"Memory is an artist, shaping the recollection of each person's life into a work of art, yet creating an imperfect record," said Andre Maurois. Jay Wilkinson's work examines the nature of memory, recognizing its deceptive qualities while acknowledging its foundational role in human life. Memory, as the architect of selfhood, stands as the only true constant in our existence beyond the present moment. Wilkinson employs figurative and representational imagery to construct abstract "memories," unraveling the complex interplay between moments and emotional memories that form our identity. Wilkinson is not only an artist but also the founder of the Bobby on Drums art collective and gallery. He has co-founded Art Tooth, an emerging artist organization, and owned and operated Dang Good Candy: studio/gallery.
