Jennet Inglis

Friends and colleagues refer to me as a creative savant. I am often told I must be superhuman, when it's simply genius autism. I used to cover up my autism because I felt unsafe being myself. But my thousands of paintings speak for me, so I can't deny who I really am. My world seems to slide through space at a different speed and amperage than those around me. One perception of myself is that ALL Time physically resides in me.

One of my first memories is being in a stroller in Manhattan when my mother stopped at a corner flower market. My face was pressed into those flowers, while my eyes were filled with their colors and shapes. I still remember those flowers, which is partly why I had to create these coloring books: to share with you my joy in nature.

My autism gives me a purpose, which is to inspire future generations. To that end, I have developed several public installation projects that synthesize Science, Art, and Spirit. I am grateful that my work profoundly affects others. I have been told, over and over again, that my projects will make a difference. So, here it is! I'm coming for you!
