Jedediah Gainer
About
Jedediah Gainer (b.1981) is a British born contemporary painter and photographer, living and working in West Sussex, England. Educated in England and Chile, and having journeyed and experienced South and Central America, Europe and the Far East, he has slowly developed and acquired an interest in the way art is used to promote, assist, and affirm, supernatural and religious beliefs, in different cultures.
Jedediah is especially interested in the way art can be used to psychologically warp perception, allowing for the visual formulation and affirming, of new worlds, and spirits. This inquisitive interest into the devotional communicative role art can perform, is what Jedediah endeavors to investigate. Subjectively, in his drawings and paintings, he attempts to unveil and portray the ancient ritual, concealed in the contemporary operation of formulating and fixing visions.
