Jessica Tan
Jessica is an Indonesian artist that works mainly with drawings. Her research reimagines vanitas artworks through the creation of her own visual language.
Jessica uses a minimalistic approach as a stylistic medium, with simple, monochromatic images and the negative spaces surrounding them. By doing this, she filters out the unnecessary and enhances the piece's clarity for viewer contemplation.
