Jordy Kerwick — The Tyranny of Distance and Time
Jordy Kerwick

The Tyranny of Distance and Time

2021

A vivid and emotionally charged work, Kerwick layers oil, acrylic, and spray paint to conjure a solitary animal figure suspended in a richly textured, atmospheric field of color. The painting evokes a profound sense of longing and isolation, hallmarks of Kerwick's signature style that blends folk art naivety with raw, gestural energy. The title speaks to an aching separation across vast stretches of space and time, rendered with both tenderness and urgency.
