Raised in Paducah, Kentucky (1979), Tim Jaeger earned his Bachelor of Arts with a Major in Fine Arts and a Minor in Modern Art History from the Ringling College of Art and Design, in Sarasota, Florida (2002), where he was a Trustee Scholar.
For the last twenty years, he has maintained his studio in Sarasota. He has participated in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Florida, Kentucky, Nebraska, Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Louisiana, New York, and South Carolina. He has received several awards and grants including the Artist Residency and Fellowship Chateau L’Hesperit, Monaret, France (2007-2008), and the Arts Leadership Award, Sarasota County Arts Council (2010).
Jaeger's recent works are gestural constructions about observing and understanding a subject/object and giving it a new abstract, material body. The work is created through a process involving an application consisting of a variety of mediums and materials, which create a familiar union brought to life through the equality of elements, patterns, and design.
