ABOUT JENNIFER
A fine art printmaker, photographer and painter, Jennifer's work forms a nexus that explores the themes of cultural nostalgia, collective memory, societal change and urban development.
For over two decades, Jennifer has explored printmaking - from relief prints, to etchings and stone lithography. Studying printmaking at RMIT and the Australian Print Workshop, Jennifer was drawn to photogravure at Baldessin Studio. Photogravure is the combination of photography and fine art printmaking, and in 2024, Jennifer developed a body of work for her first solo show: Monuments and Momentos.
In 2024, Jennifer joined the Baldessin Studio Committee of Management as a volunteer board member and provides communications support. In late 2026, Jennifer became the Secretary.
For her art making, Jennifer draws inspiration from her travels, and when travelling through China, Japan, and Hong Kong, Jennifer captured urban landscapes of cultural and historical significance, building on her photographic portfolio with images from the dense mega cities of Philadelphia and New York. Keen to explore ancient cities, Jennifer travelled to Egypt, Palestine, Israel and Jordan, and captured some of the Seven Wonders of the World. This included the breathtaking Pyramids at Giza and the Great Sphinx. As well as Pompey's Pillar and the Great Library at Alexandria. Further south in Aswan, Jennifer visited the hieroglyph-lined Karnak Temple and Valley of the Kings tombs, the Abu Simbel Temples, the Temple of Luxor, Phillae Temple, and the Temple of Karnak, the Temple of Horus, and the Temple of Queen Hatshepsut. Followed by a visit to the deserts in Jordan including Wadi Musa and Petra, and the spectacular Wadi Rum - also known as the Valley of the Moon.
Seeking further travels in ancient lands, Jennifer took a road trip with a friend around the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, exploring cities such as Riyadh and Jeddah, along with the desert at Al Ula in Medina to see the ancient neocropolis at Mada'in Salih.
After urban renewal saw the development of Red Box Studios in Collingwood, Jennifer moved her studio to the back of her house in Melbourne's inner north, where she continues her art practice, surrounded by inspiring old houses.
