Jennifer Eddinger

Jennifer Eddinger was born and raised in Manchester, NH USA. She currently resides in Chattanooga, TN. Jennifer creates natural forms and depictions inspired by her experiences as a woman and yogini. Her work emphasizes shape, geometry and form. She travels between representational art and abstraction.

Her abstractions relate to or mimic the human experience and the brilliance of the human body.

Jennifer enjoys portraiture and nudes as well as sculpture. She has experimented in various media including wood, steel and bronze. There is no material that is her favorite. Each has its beauty.

Jennifer worked as a shop assistant for an internationally known glass bead artist as well as an internationally known electric guitar maker. Her other interests include yoga, India, meditation and Ayurvedic medicine.
