Artist's Statement In my art practice, I strive to be as true to myself as possible - and that means working small. VERY small. For my entire life, I’ve been attracted to miniatures and tiny things. When I incorporated this love of mine into my artwork, my practice expanded in ways I never imagined. Since that time, I’ve been creating large series of very small works. I love art that brings a viewer close to the work, and I strive to do the same in my own art. |

Artist's Statement
There’s something about working with wax that is indescribable, especially when I see a piece of work go from a viscous to a solid state, almost as if the wax is a living organism and you are giving it mobility, enabling it to participate…and it doesn’t always behave, sometimes the outcome is unexpected and frustrating, but then sometimes the outcome exceeds expectation.

Artist's Statement
Jenny is a self-taught linocut printmaker based in Iowa City, Iowa. Her work explores political themes, the human condition, and resiliency. Over the years, her work has shifted from weird animals, street art, and popping off about work, to focusing more on text-based work, highlighting writers, poets, and fragmented ideas. She endeavors to bring a degree of lawlessness, subversiveness, heart, and enthusiasm to her art and life. When not engaged in the practice of making art/working/parenting, Jenny enjoys teaching printmaking at Public Space One in Iowa City, organizing Guerilla Joyfare Parades, and is learning to make her own clothes, with mixed results. |
