Biography

Izzy Jarvis is an honors and award-winning printmaker who received a BFA degree from her hometown college, Indiana University in Bloomington, IN. She has shown her work internationally, has had numerous solo exhibitions, and been featured in art shows in New York City and Estonia. Izzy’s MFA printmaker mother supported her lifelong interest in art, and she developed a love for rock n’ roll from her musician father. Izzy combines those early influences in her art through relief printmaking. Her current body of work uses large-scale relief portraiture to examine how aesthetic adornment and stylistic presentations of gender inform social and personal expressions of identity, especially within punk subcultures.
