Jean Lowe

Jean Lowe is an American multi­media artist (b. 1960, Eureka, CA) whose witty, decoratively rich installations combine papier-mâché sculpture with painted environments. Her work deploys humor and seduction to expose 21st-century consumption, environmental degradation, and cultural absurdities. An MFA graduate of UC San Diego (1988) and former lecturer there, she has exhibited widely—including a major survey Your Place in the Multiverse—and resides in Encinitas, CA, where she continues to artfully balance critique with aesthetic delight.
