Jolynn Reigeluth’s work earnestly and humorously reflects on the emotional and physical facets of our existence, unraveling its twisted ironies and confronting the inescapable specter of mortality. Jolynn combines various printmaking techniques, both traditional and unconventional, with drawing methods to create print and mixed media hybrids. Reigeluth’s work draws inspiration from personal encounters and everyday life. It is fueled by a passion for drawing and the process-driven pursuit of content. The images and objects emerge from a fascination with the often ‘unmentionable’ yet universally present aspects of human nature, aiming to cast light on the unspoken inner dialogues that continuously occupy our thoughts. Through a wry and satirical lens, the work delves into the everyday tribulations of the human experience—our worries, embarrassments, disappointments, and inevitable burnouts.
Jolynn is an artist originally from Des Moines, Iowa who is currently living and working in Indianapolis, Indiana. She earned her MFA in printmaking from Kansas State University in 2015. From 2016-2021.
