Framed: Jen Mann

Framed: Jen Mann

Vivid, lifelike and something to relate to.

Posted By Somayra Ismailjee 8 years ago

Canadian painter Jen Mann focuses on beauty - and not just the kind that shines through her artwork. Each piece in her substantive body of work is a critical exploration of traditional beauty ideals, along with concepts of identity and 'home'. Her impressive acrylic portraiture is accompanied by neon-looking lettering, blending emotion and negative energy with wit and self-awareness.
