Jennifer Guidi was born in 1972 in Redondo Beach, California; she currently lives and works in Los Angeles. Guidi’s practice revolves around patterns, repetition, the textural and the material: demonstrated in a decorative manner. The choice to take sand into the studio to use in her paintings is a nod to Guidi’s nomadic upbringing, as well as her more recent ventures to Kauai and Morocco. Guidi’s work symbolizes the familiar surroundings of her youth and the newer associations with meditation and calm. Jennifer Guidi’s work has been exhibited at Museo d'Arte Contemporanea Villa Croce, Genoa; LAXART, Los Angeles; Marciano Art Foundation, Los Angeles; National Museum of Women in the Arts, Washington D.C.; and Hammer Museum, Los Angeles. Jennifer’s work is included in prominent collections such as the Hammer Museum and the Rubell Family Collection.
