Jimmy Owenns
Self-taught artist born in 1981, Jimmy Owenns’ work is about splitting (of outlook, meaning and psyche), search for identity and intimate fiction through art installations, videos, photographs and interactive works. In 2001/2002, she has realised the “Photographic Diary”, an interactive diary which has been awarded during the Vidéoformes festival in 2005. These last years, her research has been improved by thoughts on cinematic narration and erotic subjects.
