Community Projects

Jessica’s method not only results in a meaningful and personalized public art piece but also fosters a sense of ownership and pride among the community members. The artwork, enriched by their collective effort, stands as a lasting testament to their shared experience and collaboration.

Jessica specializes in working with communities to co-create artwork that transforms into a public art piece driven by collective involvement. Her approach begins with engaging local residents in a series of workshops and discussions to gather ideas and insights. Through this collaborative process, Jessica helps guide the community in shaping the concept and design of the artwork, ensuring it reflects the unique identity and values of the area.

Once the vision is set, Jessica coordinates with community members to participate in the actual creation of the art. This involves hands-on activities, contributions of personal stories or symbols, and other interactive elements that allow residents to leave their mark. By incorporating diverse perspectives and talents, the final piece truly represents the community's spirit and creativity.

Examples of community-driven artworks are current public works of art.
