Hayley Samantha Jensen Artist Statement:
Thinking about the anthropocentric ideologies of the Western world, I give eyes to the entities I paint. Using the eye as a symbol for consciousness or sentience or value of being (subjecthood), I engage in a conversation around animism, playing with its vibrancy and demystifying it in order to informally hang out with animism as an idea, as a solution, and mourn with it for the human inflictions of preceding and proceeding violence.
