Jenny Sparks

Jenny Sparks (she/her) is an interdisciplinary artist who recently relocated to the Upper Valley. She grew up in Maryland, lived, worked, and played in Providence, RI for 12 years, and earned a BA in Geology and a BFA in Sculpture through the Brown/RISD Dual Degree Program.

You may find Jenny drawing in her sketchbooks, which she views as the heart of her artistic practice. She also makes wood-fired pottery, jewelry, drawings, paintings, and has worked on public sculptures. She is a member of the New Hampshire Potters Guild. Jenny enjoys cross-pollinating her work with her varied interests, finding meaning in her materials and making-processes, and hopes her efforts and interests are helping to create a more joyful world. 

Since moving to the Upper Valley, Jenny helped start a local Community Rewilding group, and loves to talk about native plants and ecology.
