ABOUT THE ARTIST –
Jessica Drenk was raised in Montana, where she developed
an appreciation for the natural world that remains an important inspiration to
her artwork today. Tactile and textural, her sculptures highlight the
chaos and beauty that can be found in simple materials. Drenk's work is also
influenced by systems of information and the impulse to develop an encyclopedic
understanding of the world.
In 2009, Drenk received an Artist Project Grant from the Arizona Commission on the Arts, funding the installation of Archaeologica at the Mesa Arts Center in Mesa, Arizona. In 2006, Drenk was awarded the International Sculpture Center's Outstanding Student Achievement in Contemporary Sculpture Award. Her work has been pictured in Sculpture, Interior Design,and Curve magazines and seen in shows at the International Grounds for Sculpture in New Jersey, the Albuquerque Museum, the Tucson Museum of Art, the International Book Fair of Contemporary Creative Books in Marseilles, France, as well as galleries and art fairs across the United States.
Drenk has an MFA from the University of Arizona, graduated Cum Laude from Pomona College, and is a member of the Phi Beta Kappa academic honor society.
Jessica currently lives and works in Clemson, South Carolina.
