Tess Jenkins (b. 1986 Albany, NY) received a Fine Arts Diploma from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. She is interested in how personal experiences and generational histories are programmed into our bodies, and how those imprints affect our emotional, social and spiritual lives. Using an intuitive approach and heavily layered process, she uses painting as a tool of investigation to better understand our infinitely complicated, multi-layered bodysytems, how we relate to them, and how they affect our senses of self. She has exhibited in numerous solo and group shows across the US, with recent shows including The Pit, Palm Springs, CA (2023) and CompoundYV, Yucca Valley, CA (2023-24). She currently lives and works in Flamingo Heights, CA in the Mojave Desert.
