Jake Parisse
I believe that a community ought to be measured not by size or volume, but by the strength of the bonds between its members.
Any given day at JWS, I have the distinct pleasure of watching first hand as new bonds are formed, old ones strengthen, and the gaps of impossibility grow smaller and smaller.
As an Artist, I am committed to a practice wherein collaborators recognize and respect the vast collection of artistic perspectives and boundaries between them.
