Marlene Jorge

Marlene Jorge

My process is made of impromptu expressions and unforced outbursts. My compositions are like a personal diary, with works stemming from volatile emotions that well up within my mind and curious spirit. I try channeling my creative urges to produce unique artwork by extracting all creative juice from daily emotion-triggering activities as much as from more personal, deep realms.

Born in Santiago, Dominican Republic, in 1974, Marlene Jorge is a neurodivergent, autodidact, pop surrealist artist who addresses unconsciousness in its true nature. Jorge offers a unique version of liberated unconsciousness. Her style is best known for its liberation from the common perspective. It provides a subtle yet unique composition from an elevated place, inviting the spectators to break free from preconceptions or society's blueprints.

Marlene Jorge spent her youth in her native Dom. Rep and USA. The artist's first drawing composition is dated 1982 and is currently owned by the artist's Mother, who had observed Jorge's artistry in drawing and painting at the very early age of 5. She challenges the spectators to sympathize with their inner selves, untouched by preconceived social, cultural, and background fostering. Jorge's style invites us to understand and embrace who we are without the life-giving preconceptions we ceaselessly experience.
