Jeanne F. Jalandoni b. 1993
Jeanne F. Jalandoni is a painter and textile artist born and based in New York City. Her work navigates Filipino American cultural identity through personal research on historic Western influences on the Philippines, family archives, and personal experience growing up as a second-generation American who has never been to the Philippines. She uses national symbols such as the carabao, bangus, and mangoes to express characteristics she associates with her biculturalism, aiming to redefine their meaning and reclaim the Filipino American narrative.
Jeanne received her BFA in Studio Art with a concentration in painting at New York University (2015). Jeanne has had solo shows with Taymour Grahne Projects, virtual (2021); Real Art Ways, Connecticut (2019); the Little Underground Gallery/Jefferson Market Library, New York (2018); and the Berkshire Art Museum, Massachusetts (2018).
