Jess Eddy

Jess Eddy is a multi-disciplinary artist interested in issues around identity and mental health, who is constantly exploring new ways to create work in mediums unfamiliar to her. With a background in graphic design and illustration, she has taken a break from the commercial world and spent the past twelve months pushing her creative practice to include fashion, textiles, animation and zine making.

Jess’s work strives to find positivity in a world that can often seem cold and apathetic, and chooses to focus on the small things that unite us all in the common human experience. She is most interested in specificity of experience, and how so many people can look at the same piece of work and identify personally with it, and maybe even influence that person’s experience and perception of the greater world.

Jess is part of our M_Curators initiative.

Wominjeka (Welcome). We acknowledge the Yaluk-ut Weelam as the traditional custodians of the land on which we meet. Yaluk-ut Weelam means ‘people of the river camp’ and is connected with the coastal land at the head of Port Phillip Bay, extending from the Werribee River to Mordialloc. The Yaluk-ut Weelam are part of the Boon Wurrung, one of the five major language groups of the greater Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to the land, their ancestors and their elders—past, present and to the future.
