Jessica Taylor Bellamy is an artist of juxtapositions: image and text, abstraction and figuration, handmade and mass produced, reality and fantasy, sunshine and noir. A native Angeleno, born and raised in Whittier to an Ashkenazi Jewish mother and an Afro-Cuban father, Bellamy's practice considers this particular familial history to address notions of home, homeland, and landscape. The artist's work is rooted in her observations living at the edge of a precarious paradise of shifting ecological tensions.
