Jess Miller

Jess Miller (British, b.1989) is a multidisciplinary artist known for her captivating oil paintings and ceramic creations. Her artistic endeavours delve into the intricacies of selfhood, introspection, and the nuances of femininity. Through a refined exploration of
autobiographical narratives, mythology, and the realm of female domesticity, Miller presents a rich tapestry of imagery that is at once ethereal and provocative.

In her latest body of work, Miller embarks on a profound journey, zooming into the minutiae of the female experience. Focusing on intimate details such as boots and clothing, she imbues her pieces with texture, evoking both comfort in solitude and confidence in social settings. These new creations serve as a celebration of self-assurance, urging viewers to embrace their decisions and revel in their own skin.

Within Miller's layered portraits, one encounters a kaleidoscope of emotions and narratives. Bold and vibrant colours intertwine with intricate patterns, forming a backdrop for her salacious yet empowered female figures. Through a bricolage of autobiographical elements and imagined interiors, Miller constructs scenes that challenge cultural perceptions of femininity while inviting introspection.
