About Me
Jen is known for their belief in everyday aesthetics to create authentic, sensible yet quirky designs.
In my artistic journey, I blend a belief in everyday aesthetics with a deep exploration of societal influences on body image. Known for creating authentic yet quirky designs, I'm committed to simplifying everyday life through art. My work delves into the impact of social media on body ideals, using glass and drawing to highlight the pressures society imposes. Through transparency and fragility motifs, I aim to inspire young minds as an art teacher, advocating for creativity's role in preserving the fine arts.
