Artist
Jason Macza is an imaginative abstract artist from Saskatchewan, Canada. His sculptural style is inspired by the way that the Saskatchewan Prairie shapes nature. Through multimedia design and the concept of creative destruction, Jason's artwork expresses his struggles with mental health and neurodivergence, offering glimpses into his experiences and perceptions of the world around him. With a diverse multi-media career covering animation, directing and VFX for TV and film, including nominated for an Emmy for “Man In The High Castle.” Film festival awards and VFX awards. he began his full-time studio practice in Saskatoon in 2016. Currently, Jason focuses on creating immersive 2D and 3D worlds, and explores what resonates in the traces of "underneathness" within his materials and concepts.
Jason Macza excels at capturing the dynamics of animals, depicting their play-fight, but Jason goes beyond mere representation. In his eyes, the animal groups he portrays resemble a close social community where they chase and frolic freely, like an undiscovered prairie somewhere in the world, quietly immortalized.
Under Jason's brush, the rabbits and dogs are poised and ready, or leaping into action. Though each movement is fleeting, it seems eternal. Within each action, we can anticipate the next. The rabbits will leap, and the hunting dogs will charge forward. Jason not only depicts the chase between rabbits and dogss but also presents every fleeting moment is brimming with the possibilities of the future
