Multidisciplinary artist currently based in the United States.

Born in 2002, Jennifer Goebner received her BFA in photography from the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD) in the spring of 2024.

Jennifer was only a seedling when she realized that she needs to spend her life making strange things. Now, she is a cross-dimensional artist who explores the thermodynamics of consciousness by opening to the prima materia. Her methodology is guided by ecological wisdom, the sensuous properties of matter, the richness of distance and duration, the quiet courage to allow our vulnerabilities to be seen, and the coincidentia oppositorum. Jennifer is largely inspired to create due to an intuitive hunger for the sovereignty of nature’s imagination.

“Photography is a crucible for enchanted verisimilitude. It allows for the transmutation of my cosmic interiority into another frequency of consciousness, where the art is hospitable to shadow and makes permanence out of the sublime interim that dances in the unknown. In the photographic landscape, there is an aperspectival and didactic intimacy that flows forth from the heart’s secret tabernacles to reveal the anima mundi. Photography necessitates an incontrovertible engagement with the anima mundi.

“My current project, Sonata Transmutationis, began with the creation of two papier-mâché masks: one of the sun and one of the moon. These are of an interdependent origin as they unfold across the seven stages of interpretive alchemy. The technical process entails subjecting the photographic negatives to the elemental forces, including burning and rusting the negatives and experimenting with film soup.”
