Artwork Themes & Subject Matter
Jennifer Allnutt’s artistic practice is best characterized by dark romanticism and figurative surrealism in traditional oil painting. The works oscillate on the line between realism and illusionism. Finding inspiration in poetry, Jungian psychology, mythology, literature, philosophy and personal experiences, Jennifer constructs compositions that act as carriers for her internal musings. Through the process of juxtaposing subject matter such as death with romance, wonder with fear and the awe inherent in the sublime, Allnutt links these polarities into a dark divergence. These strange pairings fuel the sense of the uncanny found within the work. Her use of juxtaposition is deliberate to examine the divisions and fluidity between mind/body, man/nature, reality/representation and good versus evil.
