Jennifer Rose Wolken (she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist and designer. A native of the Missouri Ozarks region, she received her MFA in visual studies from Missouri State University. Jennifer’s line of functional sketchbooks and journals are inspired by a love of craftsmanship from centuries past, the beauty of materials, and a lifelong habit of keeping a sketchbook. Her current body of sculptural work is inspired by her own challenges coping with chronic illness, as well as themes of renewal, recycling, and community connection. These sculptural artist’s books have shown in international juried shows in San Francisco, Chicago, New Orleans, Minneapolis, and Pennsylvania. They have also been acquired by several private collectors including university libraries.
