Jenna Hamed is an artist & art worker based in Queens, New York, born & raised in metro-Detroit, with roots in Jerusalem, Palestine.

 

She obtained a bachelors in Fashion and Fine Art at Eastern Michigan University, and a Master’s degree in Arts Politics at NYU Tisch. Jenna’s background in tactile-driven analog practices and critical examination of art production has influenced her current interests in documentation methods via image-making, poetics, archiving, and the book format. Her spiritual grounding informs her use of the element of surprise, values of repetition, tensions between mysticism and skepticism, and the Inescapable Gaze.
