Jason Jenn: Arboreal Soul / Descanso Gardens, La Cañada Flintridge, CA

Jason Jenn is one of the artists selected for the exhibition “Days of Reverie” at the Sturt Haaga Gallery at Descanso Gardens in La Cañada Flintridge, California. Jason Jenn’s work is a site-specific installation titled “Arboreal Soul”. It includes a participatory aspect, inviting visitors to create their own designs on the central pedestal from an ample supply of natural plant materials found around Descanso Gardens. In this video Jason Jenn talks about his work.

“Days of Reverie” at Descanso Gardens’ Sturt Haaga Gallery presents new bodies of work by four Los Angeles-based visual artists: Catherine Ruane, Debbie Korbel, Jason Jenn, and Jill Sykes. Accompanying these visual works is a specially composed musical score by Joseph Carrillo, the exhibition’s guest artist. The project was initiated and curated by Vojislav Radovanović, who envisioned each artist creating entirely new works inspired directly by the beautiful environment of Descanso Gardens. The exhibition runs until January 26, 2025. In another video Vojislav Radovanović guides us through the show.
