A Geography of Colour

Jenny Eden

Jenny is a Contemporary British painter, writer and lecturer based in the North West of England.
Emerging from a process of close making and the complex relationship between two active objects of being, Jenny’s paintings embody the potential for visual and psychological oscillation. In this exchange between painter and painting, the process arrives at curious and insubstantial 'part-objects', simultaneously ‘separate from’ and ‘part of’ monochromatic spatial fields, operating in obscure, surface-smooth colour (un)realities. 
Jenny received a BA in Fine Art from Birmingham School of Art in 2000, an MFA in Fine Art from Manchester School of Art in 2017 and she is currently undertaking a By Practice PhD in Painting at Manchester School of Art. Jenny lectures in Fine Art Painting at Manchester School of Art on the BA Fine Art and MA Painting programmes and she is Level 4 Year Leader in Fine Art. She also co-runs Oceans Apart, a gallery in Salford dedicated to contemporary painting, and she has exhibited her own work both nationally and internationally.
