Jason DeMeo is a contemporary artist based in Nashville, Tennessee, whose work instigates transformation and connection. Rooted in the belief that matter is miraculous, his practice explores the interplay of energy, memory, and materiality to create immersive, thought-provoking pieces.
Of Italian heritage and originally from Pittsburgh, Jason draws inspiration from nature’s ability to transform the mundane into moments of unexpected beauty—rusted bridges, weathered walls, and decaying surfaces. These textures inform his pioneering technique, Reverse Abstraction™, in which paintings are layered, dried, and pulled from the studio floor, carrying “memory fragments” of past works.
Jason is also developing Synthesism™, a philosophy that extends beyond art, embracing synthesis as the next evolution of creativity—where modernism constructs, postmodernism deconstructs, and Synthesism combines. Influenced by movements like Bauhaus and Black Mountain College, his work bridges disciplines, echoing the fusion seen in contemporary music, architecture, and culture.
With a deep conviction that art transforms both people and spaces, Jason’s work invites viewers into a meditation—one that honors the past while inspiring new interpretations and connections.
