About the Item

Jess Kellner is a multi disciplinary artist who’s work has a strong focus on exploring the human condition. It’s a theme that you see in his artwork as well as his filmmaking. While his main forte on most days is acting, he’s also turned his attention behind the lens having recently written directed his first short film, entitled “Enough is Enough”. Kellner often has a humorous approach to life, providing laughter and joy to those in his company. And yet there is also a more introspective side to him, one that digs deep into the meaning of this shared human experience. A balance that we argue is a fine way to experience this world. View works. Jess Kellner (b. 1994) is an American painter whose work examines vulnerability, emotional presence, and the tension between surrender and control. Drawing from his background in acting and film, Kellner's practice translates the language of performance into painterly form-each composition unfolding like a still from a larger narrative. His figures often exist in suspended states, caught between motion and stillness, where intimacy and uncertainty converge.
