Jared Boechler

Bio

Boechler is a contemporary visual artist. He works and exhibits internationally, including New York, Asia, and Europe, most recently presenting as the youngest artist at NordArt, Germany. He has recently been awarded working fellowships at Art Biotop, Japan, Serlachius Museum, Finland and Sheen Center for Thought + Culture in New York, USA.

Boechler was recently recognized at the Governor General History Awards for his work, presided over by the Honourable Governor General of Canada, Julie Payette.

Boechler’s most significant exhibition to date paired custom-designed scents alongside the original oil paintings they inspired. The olfactory element attached to this body of work introduced a largely new method of working in the world of contemporary art; a process led by scent influence.

His current practice involves the use of traditional, installation, and olfactory art.
