FEATURED ARTIST

Kayla Jeane

Kayla Jeane (b. 1991) makes paintings, drawings, and sculptures that merge the psychological, the anatomical, and the botanical. She gravitates towards iconic images - bones, DNA strands, flora and fauna - drawn in bold black outlines. The symbols often spread across a whole page, suggesting a private system of hieroglyphics.
