Jeffery T. Schultz

A maverick by design, Jeffery Schultz refuses to conform to contemporary trends in fine art photography. He rebels against life limiting cultural constraints to coax the audience into an experience of involuntary liberation. As viewers we feel as if we are being led by a multi-dimensional traveler into worlds deep within our hearts. What we see through his Art and guidence is an extraordinary vision of our ordinary existence. Schultz's creative genius lies in his ability to render human life visible in mythic proportions, calling us to search inwardly for something greater than ourselves.

By following an intuitive creative process, well supported by his technical expertise, Schultz teaches us about the mysterious nature of life. His body of work suggests a hidden universal intelligence that guides the evolution of temporal form. As in the tradition of sacred visionary art, Schultz's work embodies an expression of the ineffable.

There is a sense of purpose, of mission, of control, in his work, that is complemented by the willingness to let go of all preconceptions. His intention, as an artist, is to give birth visually to something entirely new, a provocative presence that comes into being before the lens, naked, before our beholding eyes, hanging on the wall where it dares us to meet it. A vibrant, ensouled work of art speaking in a language of color, a photographic field of energy, which integrates into a print that invites the viewer into an experience of communion, film to skin.

"My passion and life's work as a photographer is to give depth and dimension to the unseen in the form of visionary art;" afterwards as he says, " I'm finished and the viewer takes over."

As a Fine Artist and Filmmaker Mr. Schultz has won several grants and awards, his work has been shown internationally, and has found its way to many private and corporate collections including The General Motors Design Center Collection.
