Discover Artistry That Transcends Time

Greetings,

My name is Jesse, and I am an artist and photography student. I have spent much of my life making horrible mistakes and happy accidents. The consequences of those caused me to spend much of my life as a prisoner, whether that be to substances, institutions, or my own brain. However, they have all led me here, to this current moment in life as we know it. None of the things we’ve done in life can be taken back but they offer us a new perspective on the world. I find that art can be a great coping mechanism, and to be one of my passions in life that has never faded. The purpose of kvasir’s second nectar is to share not only my perspective but many others perspectives with the those who love art. Kvasir is a norse god who was created from the saliva of the other gods. He wandered the realms sharing his great wisdom with all that he encountered and was eventually murdered. His blood was then mixed with honey to create the mead of poetry. The second nectar symbolizes second chances, and I hope to one day build this into something where others can share their experiences through art and find some redemption in life. I originally created this website for my brother and people like him, to work as a non-profit and help other prisoners showcase their art and give them a voice. I still have much to learn about photography and marketing but one day I hope to make this a space where people can cope and find some purpose in life.
