Abstract Art Daily Artsy

Multiplicity. Jackie Phillips AKA Precious Beast.

I think we all know the feeling of wanting to clone ourselves, to be able to be in several places at once, to be all things to all people, at all times.  But try as we might, the truth eventually sinks in that it just isn’t possible.  These prints by Jackie Phillips, also known as Precious Beast, with their mirrored, Rorschach-like patterns seem to do what we can not– multiply themselves.

These colorful kaleidoscopes feel like they could be portraits of how we feel we should be– a new and different yet exactly the same version of ourselves reborn each day.  We’re pressured to multi-task, multi-hyphenate ourselves– mother-wife-daughter-artist-professional-and so on and so on.
