Ashley Jeneé makes both functional and non functional porcelain objects, photos and other conceptual artworks. By contesting the division between the realm of memory and the realm of experience, Ashley tries to approach a wide scale of subjects in a multi-layered way that challenges the viewer understandings of beauty, memory, and mortality.

        Her works are being confronted as aesthetically resilient, thematically interrelated material for memory and projection. With a conceptual approach, she creates work through labour-intensive processes which can be seen explicitly as a personal exorcism ritual. By referencing romanticism and floriography, she absorbs the tradition of remembrance art into daily practice. This personal follow-up and revival of a past tradition is important as an act of meditation.

        Ashley’s works are often classified as part of the new romantic movement because of the desire for the local in the unfolding globalized world. However, this reference is not intentional, as this kind of art is part of the collective memory. Her works directly respond to the surrounding environment and uses everyday experiences from the artist as a starting point. Often these are framed instances that would go unnoticed in their original context.
