Jenny Eggleston
Jenny Eggleston is a Raleigh-based artist raised in Richmond, Virginia. Born into a family of historians, she was immersed in southern, patriotic rhetoric and grew up with a deep love of southern culture, food, and art. Her work is a reckoning with this whitewashed, patriarchal upbringing. Eggleston graduated from the College of William and Mary and began graduate studies at Virginia Commonwealth University before moving to Seattle and then to Raleigh.
Eggleston has exhibited throughout North Carolina and Virginia at the Weatherspoon Art Museum in Greensboro, the Muscarelle Museum of Art in Williamsburg, and the Rubenstein Arts Center at Duke University, among others.
