JFM Arts is a contemporary nomadic gallery showcasing visual artists—painters, photographers, sculptors, and more—in temporary spaces like vacant real estate or public venues. It offers artists a platform to exhibit their work and provides art enthusiasts with the chance to view and purchase original artworks.

Our mission is to showcase a diverse range of artists—emerging, mid-career, and new—while supporting DEIB initiatives and promoting art appreciation and sales. A portion of each sale benefits a designated non-profit.

As of August 2025, JFM Arts has hosted three shows and worked with approximately ten artists. We aim to feature varied art styles, expand our community, hold two to four shows annually, and participate in one art fair within our first two years.

Sol Kjok

Sol paints constellations of floating bodies, created through acrobatic collaborations with fellow artists from her interdisciplinary NYC arts collective.

In short, we are oneness having the experience of separateness. View her website here.

John Manocherian

Painting is a waking dream
Giving me a feeling of accomplishment.
It's immediately sensual,
a puzzle to scramble and then arrange.
Inside is music
the forest beauty.
Fresh cut grass on a summer day.
Hitchcock movies,
a picnic at night under moonlight
And my breath right now.

Jennifer Manocherian

I make creatures, for want of a better word. The base is a mannequin. Then I add rubber masks, wigs, clothes, and miscellaneous objects I own or buy, claws as needed. I glue, staple, paint, polish nails, and comb and cut wigs. I spend most days writing.
