Biography

Nelly Duff presents Jessica Albarn, our first print together sees a meeting of Jessica’s fine line drawing with a hidden geometry (gloss varnish that shines under direct light).
She completed a series of portraits, which include the likes of Banksy, which was published in Marmalade Magazine, Brian Haw the peace protestor and the singer Alison Goldfrapp. But her real obsession is insects, Spiders and drawing out the beauty in all creatures. Dead or Alive!
Jessica is interested in the psychological dramas we project onto these creatures, their symbolism and the emotional tension that is held in the image.
She has exhibited in the UK and published a book of her drawings with Cederteg Publishing. She has collaborated internationally, recently with Helmut Lang for their new collection to be launched early next year. There is more to Jessica than meets the eye but that’s for us to know and you to find out!
