JACQUELINE NUZZO
(she/her/hers)
Jacqueline W. Nuzzo works in illustration, printmaking, and collage. Her studio practice experiments with beauty ideals and body norms by highlighting and emphasizing specific characteristics of the body in her figurative drawings, bringing them into question and deconstructing why it is considered an ideal. Nuzzo attempts to convey a contorted emotional state through the figure by adding text, ensuring the viewer feels the ennui of day-to-day life through reading the textual mantras of dismay, coping, and perseverance. She was an artist for the 2019-2020 Studio 400 Program, and a 2018 artist-in-residence at Proof Public letterpress collective. Nuzzo received her BA in Studio Art and Biology from St. Olaf College in 2017.
