Working to promote peace and wellness for our planet and people

MULTI - MEDIA and INTERDISCIPLINARY
Art to inspire and encourage
Jennifer is an eco-advocate driven to explore ecological issues, like the devastating impacts of polluted water, helping navigate paths to a healthier world. Her ECO-ART connects multiple disciplines into original visual and literary art. She invites others to explore a new way of seeing, which is usually in a satirical and slightly subversive light. Distilling exciting scientific research and serious societal concerns, her work strikes a balance between the difficult truths of our culture and hope for change; it is art meant to inspire and encourage.
DIGITAL MOTION ART
The ECO-ART series highlights ecological concerns with contemporary juxtapositions, bringing attention to issues like water pollution and unchecked consumerism in an innovative way. MOVING MEDITATIONS relax the body and engage the mind, creating calm reflection and altered states of consciousness. All of the work promotes peace and wellness for our planet and people.
Loupe, ranked #1 Lifestyle App by Apple TV, has selected Jennifer's Moving Meditations for streaming, which are now available on multiple platforms and channels including Pluto TV. Contact Jennifer for info about commercial license options and benefits of motion art.

For sculpture and dioramas, Preston assembles found objects and cast-offs. Her commercial and editorial photos exist in city collections and feature in magazines, websites and non-profit/for-profit company advertising. Preston's personal work appears on television, in galleries and installations.
Jennifer's public art installations run the gamut from photo murals two-stories high on city buildings, to virtual exhibits, to utility box art wraps. She's excited to work in the public realm because she's able to open up a dialogue within the community and invite positive collaboration and participation.
"Chushcoff’s photography is highly atmospheric, edited for misty edges and emotional saturation.”
Rosemary Ponnekanti, The News Tribune
"Her exploration of water in our state is a visual, scientific, and spiritual journey through native ecosystems large and small . . . Chushcoff’s triplicate approach to the subject is intriguing and informational. The macro photography lends an intimate feeling which is supported by the poems, while the scientific facts lend an academic credibility to the project. I enjoy the juxtaposition of research and whimsy present in this project and in its creator."
