JENNIFER CELIO

My interdisciplinary artworks manipulate perception, creating fantastical iterations in which artificial and natural imagery fuse to become newly impossible realities. Referencing the crisis level threat of environmental degradation, the works conjure seemingly mundane situations that have been artificially altered or supercharged. In drawings, mixed media paintings, assemblage sculptures, and installations, I weave disparate components and techniques while alluding to humanity’s impact upon natural ecosystems.
