Jessica Tenbusch
Overview
Jessica Tenbusch is inspired by the animal and plant species that live near and with humans. She creates work that reflects these complex relationships and how they shape her as a human animal. Her work is an observation on our role as ecosystem builders and destroyers. These works are fragments of our daily environment, showing just how close nature is in our everyday lives, embedded in our homes and neighborhoods. In her childhood, she shared her home with a multitude of other animals and hundreds of houseplants. Outside was always inside.
