Peak Summer represents what was actively growing in my garden at that time. Purple basil, tomato vines, nasturtium and marigold blossoms. I don’t typically reiterate my work in forms beyond two dimensions. The process allowed me to see moments I hadn’t before, and find compositions within a composition. I’ll probably use mine untraditionally – to hold flowers from my garden.

Collect a hand-painted ceramic amphora by Jordan Casteel, launched in support of charity: water.
Jordan considers the paintings she makes of her garden self-portraits, in the sense that they encapsulate time spent cultivating, observing and documenting. Peak Summer takes one such painting as its starting point, encircling an amphora with a tangle of vines, leaves and flowers.
The artwork belongs to a series of seven, conceived and crafted in a transatlantic collaboration between Artspace and Avant Arte. Proceeds will support charity: water in their endeavour to end the global water crisis.

Jordan Casteel1 collaborationIn 2017, Jordan Casteel painted Yvonne and James, showing a bundled-up couple holding hands against the cold. Yvonne and James II (2021) shows James in their apartment – now alone, with only a wedding portrait to hold after Yvonne passed away. Jordan paints windows into the lives of her subjects with enough detail that they don’t feel like strangers. She breathes life into the spaces their lives are lived – a family restaurant, the subway, a Buddhist temple. Jordan’s paintings ask what can we learn about a person when we slow down enough to see them?
