statement:
Much of my artwork explores beautified and idealized depictions of women throughout art history and in visual culture. I'm interested in and inspired by feminism and performance art. I love endurance art and the work of Ana Mendieta. Some of the authors that have inspired me are Laura Mulvey and Julia Kristeva. There is a feminist performance art movement happening in recent history and I aspire to contribute to that movement, however big or small that may be. 
My life experience as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community has had a profound influence on my work as a conceptual artist. My artistic practice includes thinking of a concept, sketching the visual art aspect of that concept, planning props and locations, then choosing which photographic equipment will best document and depict that concept. I often use film, scan film, and edit my artwork in Photoshop. I then print my work on inkjet printers.

Jennifer's artwork was recently exhibited in WHITE RABBIT at Dab Art's H Gallery in Ventura, CA. WHITE RABBIT conveys "themes of absence, longing, loss, fragility and aggravation."
