Full-time artist, part-time disruptor and art advocate j.Reto discusses how creativity affects his work and personal life.

Born in eastern Pennsylvania, artist j.Reto lived in Rochester, NY, before moving to California where he spent 30 years exploring and delineating his artistic style. In 2017, he and his family moved to Anchorage, Alaska, where he abandoned his old art practice for a new understanding, new aesthetic and new perspective on the Neo Art Markets. He was a founding member of Anchorage’s CIRCLE5 art group and is preparing to launching C3 (Creatives, Collectors & Community), an enclave of art activists wanting to advance the art scene in Alaska.  j.Reto shows regularly throughout Anchorage and currently has a 10’ x 15’ installation at Cyrano’s Theatre Gallery. He is curating a reimagined mythos show at ConocoPhillips Gallery this June titled, Last ‘tier, and will have a yet to be titled solo show in October at Alaska Pacific University. 

Recorded March 2026 on the phone between Anchorage, Alaska and Palmdale, CA.
