Jeremy Schilling [2007, Illustration]

An ever-continuing, introspective narration of thoughtful reflections, Jeremy’s artwork explores the human psyche and the internal conflicts which dwell within it. He pushes the relationships between figures and their environments.

His work has been on dispay at Gold Gallery in Boston’s SoWa District, The Wickford Arts Assosiation Gallery, Mystic Arts Center Gallery, The Wickford and Scituate Art Festivals, and the RISD Craft Exhibition for the past 2 years. He has had solo exhibitions at Counter Weight Brewing Company in Hamden CT during December 2018, Perkatory Coffee Roasters in Middletown CT during January 2019 and at AS220’s Main Project Space in Providence RI for February 2019.

In July 2019 his work was part of a month long display at the Waterfire Arts Center in conjunction with Luke Jerram’s “Museum of the Moon” and John Sabraw’s “The Milky Way.” The exhibit was in celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo Moon landing and was in partnership with Brown University and the NASA RI Space Consortium.

In Jeremy’s current series The Overview Effect, his artwork focuses on astronauts and space, specifically exploring the concept of the space suit and how it acts as a shield between a person and their environment. Using oil paint, pen and ink, silkscreen and watercolors, these images are emotionally charged examining homesickness, the acceptance of change, and the loneliness of exploration. Jeremy grew up in Connecticut where he was trained as a landscape painter before attending the Rhode Island School of Design, where he studied Illustration.
