Jane Maxwell is a mixed media artist whose layered works explore issues of body image and perfectionism, and the stark contradiction between our shiny exteriors and our complex interior worlds. Her artistic voice grew out of a passion for vintage materials, modern fashion and design—mingled with a deep fascination for pop culture and female icons.
