Jen DeLuna’s work explores the moments of vulnerability confessed through figures and animals. She uses her robust collection of found photographs from thrift stores, family photo albums, and eBay as the basis for her paintings. DeLuna depicts classic representations of domesticity, beauty, love, and femininity as memories, some wistfully fading and others stuck in a glossy state of film or porcelain. Her paintings distill memory into nostalgia: perilous beauties, fearful beasts, and intimate moments.
