“The Primary source for my work is the home my family maintains in central Kansas. My recent work focuses on the material surroundings of this place on the prairie; wooden houses, farm buildings, fences and hand-built structures. The images are drawn from memory and imagination. Like day dreaming, various elements in the work are layered and repeated, building an imaginary space as I remember the past, think about the present, and imagine the future.” (- Gesine Janzen)
