JENNY BROWN
Forest Menagerie (Squam Lake), Mixed Media, 11” x 14”, 2024
jennybrownart.com | @jennybrownart
I am a collage artist and visual arts teacher based in Providence, RI.
Over the past two decades, I have been making art which questions our long held understandings of time, space, energy, and matter. With a focus on visualizing the most lush & ethereal phenomena of the natural world, my collages and drawings are first and foremost celebrations of the ongoing physical and spiritual evolution of our universe.
As an artist who sees the process of creating art as non-linear, I find that I experience the past, present, and future lives of my subjects all simultaneously. The use of layered antique collage, alongside elements of painting & drawing, provides the building blocks for studying and illustrating the complexities of what was, what is, and what could be.

Jenny now creates handcrafted and digital collage illustrations for books, zines, jewellery, surface pattern designs, and other custom fine art pieces and commissions, all from her home studio in Amsterdam.

Racquel Keller is an American Multidisciplinary artist based in Maryland, USA who works primarily in mixed media collage and assemblage. She is inspired by art history, vintage objects & paper ephemera. Her work sits at the intersection of reality and dreams, using mixed media and unusual juxtapositions to elicit a feeling of l’entre deux - a sense of the duality which exists in between the familiar and the strange. She is interested in creating enough space to allow the viewer to experience something that is immediately familiar but also hints at the fantastical nature of dreams and the ever changing landscape of our memory.
