POLAR EXTREMES
Artist Statement
My practice explores systems across scales — environmental, biological, emotional, and cosmic — and the patterns that connect them. Some works focus on systems under pressure, observing how imbalance, heat, or disruption produce visible responses in material, ecology, and human experience.
Other works investigate underlying structures of order and harmony, drawing on mathematical, musical, and orbital systems that persist regardless of surface instability. Together, these bodies of work reflect a dialogue between change and coherence — between what fractures and what holds — revealing resonance across the microscopic, planetary, and human realms.

COLLAGE - MUSIC OF THE SPHERES
Music of the SpheresArtist Statement — Jacque MarksMy work explores how vibration underpins matter, and how pattern becomes visible in bothsound and form. I began with the perforated rhythms of pianola scrolls—simple codes thathold entire compositions—and used them as a platform to explore proportion, geometry,colour, and harmonic structure. The shapes and balances reflect echoes of the ideas thatinfluenced me: Kepler’s harmonics, cymatics, sacred geometry, magnetic flow, watermemory, fractal order, and the sense that everything is patterned at multiple scales. Thecolours were chosen as soft, coherent tones—like the mood of a peaceful ballad. Theseworks are a map of my inner landscape, shaped by curiosity, study, and the feeling thatcreativity is a vessel for vibration. After all, we are made of stardust—light, frequency, andmatter arranged into form—and music is one way the universe moves through us, shapingwhat the body never forgets.
