Liz Jaff explores the interaction of light and matter playing with perceptions of form and space. In her works fragility, resilience, vulnerability, light, shadow, ephemerality, and permanence coexist and strive to embrace and describe the intangible. Personal narrative, poetry and storytelling are intertwined combining a sense of the familiar with the unexpected. Her installations reinvent existing architecture and along with her sculptures emphasize the unique structural possibilities and characteristics of materials. Drawings are visual manifestations of time and how it might be captured in space. Her photography evokes a sense of fleeting and longing by documenting small forms integrated into the world outside the gallery or studio.

She has exhibited nationally and internationally, including at Arsenale Nord, Venice, Italy, Widmer Theodoridis Gallery, Switzerland, The Art Complex Center, Tokyo, Rochester Contemporary Arts Center, Volta Art Fair in New York and Basel, Switzerland, Sugarlift x HighLine Nine and Hubweek, the annual innovation festival founded by The Boston Globe, Harvard University, Massachusetts General Hospital and MIT. She lives and works in New York City and earned a BFA in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design.
