Hey, I’m Jazzy (she/they)

I’m a multimedia experimental artist.

I explore a diverse range of mediums including collage, photography, dance, altar building, song writing, papier-mâché, printing, crochet, and embroidery.

I love to share my process and hope to inspire others to follow their own creative impulses.

My art Journey

"Experiments are the only means of knowledge at our disposal. The rest is poetry, imagination," -Max Planck

Writing poetry always came naturally. My first poems (that I can remember) were written when I was 12 years old. Every Friday our teacher gave us a chance to share our work in front of the class in exchange for a snack. I would have shared for no snack, but it was certainly an added bonus.

Film photography was my favorite class freshman year of high school. I loved developing photos in the darkroom and taking “artsy” photos of my friends. The next 3 years I worked exclusively with digital photography and videography.

In college I studied studio art and got to explore a much wider range of media and techniques: drawing, painting, crochet, collage, sculpture, digital media, printmaking, dance, performance art, instillations, etc.

My final project was a campaign called The Friendly Nipple which explored the unequal censorship of women’s bodies on social media and the impulsive cultural abjection of the female body.

After graduating, I started to combine all of the techniques I had learned and began to cross pollinate them into a multimedia collage practice. My collage practice has now expanded and taken over every journal that I own.

When I first started living on the road in 2021, I learned a photography process using turmeric ink and the sun and began documenting my travels through this technique.

More recently, I have been working on a series of paper mache masks and exploring aspects of my own identity through dance and performance.
