Jenny Laden
Laden's recent work revolves around her female character. Borrowing from cartoons and 18th century portrait painting, Laden imbues her images with fantasy and melancholy, celebrating the interior life of women, mocking the decorative while relying heavily on it's weight for humor and allure.
