Jaz Harold is a New York based fine artist. Her recent works are soft and inviting, rich with plush fabrics, yarns, and pastel hues.
Sexual undertones (and overtones) and themes of self reflection or inner dialogue are incorporated throughout her oeuvre.
Using an aesthetic that consciously appeals to child-like naïveté, Jaz’s work softens the emphasis on the ego, ritual, intimacy and stigma that society generally attaches to sex.
Cherry blossoms (sakura) are a perfect balance of sexual innuendo, beauty and innocence. The cherry blossom, symbolizing love in many cultures, adds an additional element in a body of work that covers both areas – an innocent love, and a simple uninhibited lust.
