Currently on view at QUEUE Gallery, LA-based artist Jamieson Pearl speaks with Miami writer and Q editiorial intern Cristina Ameller about Pearl’s practice. Pearl is featured in the two-person exhibition Evidence of Evolution alongside Miami sculptor Fharid LaTorre on view until May 30th, 2026.
Jamieson Pearl (b. 2000, San Francisco, California) is an artist who lives and works in Los Angeles, California. Her focus is primarily oil on linen paintings with a distinctive pixelated style that evokes the detached intimacy and ambiguity of truth that comes with the digital feminine persona. They share the ethos of a curated rawness (that never bleeds), every pixel is as deliberate as every post in forming an overall image of a constructed (hyper-visible and aestheticized) reality. There is a certain darkness in the play between agency, victim hood, rebellion, and beauty that comes through with the detailed distortion she uses to execute the ‘sad girl as savior’. She is also a Libra.
