    Malia Jensen transforms familiar forms and subjects into poignant reflections on the human condition. Her diverse studio practice, encompassing sculpture, video, and photography, is informed by an interest in natural cycles and the fragility of the constructed systems we use to navigate the world.

     

    Jensen's work has been exhibited at The Schneider Museum of Art, Portland Institute of Contemporary Art, Tacoma Art Museum, Melbourne International Arts Festival, Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design, Holter Museum of Art, Portland Art Museum, and Mesa Arts Center. She has been an Artist in Residence at the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation, Ucross Foundation, Headlands Center for the Arts, and the Portland Garment Factory; and a visiting artist and speaker at Whitman College, Southern Oregon University, Pacific Northwest College of Art, and Massachusetts College of Art and Design. Jensen lives and works in Portland, OR.
