Jen Lennon

@thisisjenlen

Jen Lennon lives on the land of the Dharug people in the Blue Mountains, NSW, and works across a broad range of media including ceramics, painting, sculpture and metalwork. She spent her childhood surrounded by the tools of her farming and blacksmithing family and her work explores these tools as connection to family and events.

Memory is inherently subjective, shaped by individual perspectives, emotions, and experiences. Memory and perception are known to be highly interconnected and this is a key interest in Lennon’s practice: these intangibles serve as a source of inspiration, forming the backbone of her artworks.

Her process is led by reflection, observation, self-examination, material research, and exploration of the unexpected connections that emerge in studio-based artmaking. Incorporating found rusted metal into her ceramic pieces is a tangible reference to the passing of time and delves into the interplay between memory and form to create affective objects and assemblages that defy definition.

Lennon explores colour to question such things as gender biases, strength and weakness, and shape and silhouette to distort or investigate the purpose of a tool or object. Her work also addresses such things as pain, anxiety, rage and rebellion, and carries questions around beauty, objectification, trauma and personal safety.
