Jaq Chartier
Jaq Chartier is an American visual artist born in 1961 known for her process-based abstract paintings, particularly her Testing series which documents how materials migrate and change over time in reaction to each other, sunlight, and environmental conditions. Working primarily in Seattle, she combines scientific investigation with artistic practice, using custom formulas of inks, stains, and dyes to create works that explore themes of impermanence, materiality, and the intersection of art and science.Browse all performers
