Jeremy Mende

Jeremy Mende is an interdisciplinary artist living and working in San Francisco. His work involves creating mirroring experiences: self-reflective events that focus attention on our individual responsibility for a collective world. His work has been exhibited internationally and is included in several permanent collections including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Jeremy is a Professor of Design at California College of the Arts.

At Bogliasco, Jeremy will be developing a series of sculptures that will mark the pathway to an earthwork he is building in California. These sculptures will function as experiential ‘sign posts’ to focus visitors’ attention on three key aspects of the larger earthwork: 1) the visitors’ relative scale against the horizon, (2) their sense of immersion within the natural landscape, and (3) their awareness of being in the moment of self-perception.
