Static Flow by Jeffrey Swider Peltz

Time, repetition, and movement form the foundation of Jeffrey Swider Peltz's work. A former US National Speedskater turned full-time muralist and studio artist, Swider Peltz draws from his athletic past to create art that captures the dynamic energy of sports arenas. His abstract compositions deconstruct the static spaces of volleyball courts, tennis courts, and skateparks, using bold lines, vivid colors, and tactile materials to evoke the essence of these competitive environments.

Charcoal marks pay homage to the daily dedication of athletes but also to anyone committed to achievement through persistent, repetitive effort. Habitual and obsessive practice becomes essential to mastering muscle memory. This daily dedication transforms a routine into a craft, and for a select few, into a career. Though Swider Peltz has retired from athletics, he remains deeply connected to these principles. He approaches the gallery as an arena, training rigorously for months to deliver this moment of performance.
