(b. 1989)

Jennifer Keltos is an artist based in New York City and the Hudson Valley. She studied classical drawing and painting at the Florence Academy of Art in Italy, developing a foundation in traditional techniques that inform her contemporary practice. Her work explores cultural memory, farcical notions of femininity and the latent strangeness of the everyday. Rooted in a searching, restless observation, she grasps at something evanescent, tender, and absurd.

Jennifer has been awarded the Alpine Fellowship and the Hudson River Fellowship. Her work is featured in private collections throughout the United States, Europe, Africa and Asia. In addition to her studio practice, she works in art conservation, specializing in the restoration of sculpture and Tibetan Thangka paintings.
