About

Jazz Cagan is a New York City based artist. She graduated summa cum laude with a BFA from SUNY Purchase in 2018. She uses paint to collage together her interests in film, femininity, and art history, and to explore the ideas of artifice, facade, and persona. Her figures speak to the idea of performative characters, either through dress-up or through conscious presentation, while patterns distort spaces and play with decoration and anxious mark-making.
