Jenna Bauer is a painter, musician, educator and social sculptor. Her visual art is an abstract departure from landscape with an acute focus on color, gesture and process. Her work takes on a wide variety of appearances - an abstract non-linear autobiography - and offers our gaze respite from the socio-political grind of our day-to-day. Using a discovery-based, re-inventive approach each time she completes a new body of work, Bauer invites a conversation with the sublime on her canvases and papers.

Her social practice includes the establishment of arts educational organizations in South Saint Louis, Artscope and Colorbridge Art.

Her recent jazz recording: Late Summer Session.

She lives, works and performs in Saint Louis and Kansas City.
