Jessie Clark is a CNY based artist.
Jessie Clark has been creating emotive and absurd imagery for multiple decades (let's not say how many). Her artworks are dark comedies composed of semi-representational imagery, sprawled over any and all available surfaces. Jessie is currently working on a comic/zine called The Linq (see below for more info) along with a bunch of other drawings and doodles.

You'll Be Okay: A Bad Daughter's Guide to Survival
I'm curating a solo show of my good friend Veronica's work in the Philadelphia area. The show opens 11/6!
press release: https://veronicacianfrano.com/pagepr
“I have had front-row seats to Veronica’s development as an artist and person for 18+ years. There’s a continuity and evolution to her work that feels unparalleled. I might be biased, or maybe I’m just right.” -Jessie Clark, Curator
“This exhibition marks two decades of art-making and, as a result, relationship-building. It felt only right that the show should be curated by my long-time collaborator and friend, Jessie Clark.” -Veronica Cianfrano, Artist
“You Gotta Have Friends.” -Bette Midler, Legend

The Linq
The Linq is a sequential storytelling experiment. Installments are created in zine form using a single piece of printer paper. The original illustrations use a variety of techniques. Additional images are available in the comic section of this webite (under the work header)
