Jenna YoNa Bloom is a multidisciplinary artist living and creating on the Fleurieu Peninsula, South Australia.
Her creative practice is rooted in connection to self, to land, and to the energy of the spaces we inhabit.
Over the past year, Jenna has been drawn deeply into the world of felt. Using 22-micron Merino wool from New Zealand, she creates bold, wearable artworks inspired by the coastline she calls home pieces that are intuitive, free-flowing, and alive with colour and texture.
Beyond felt, Jenna’s practice also includes mural work, ceramics, stencil art, and digital illustration. She is known for bringing warmth and vibrancy to everything she touches whether it’s a large-scale public artwork or a hand-crafted shawl.
​
Through her work, Jenna invites others to reconnect with their senses, their surroundings, community and themselves.
Jenna’s art has been featured in solo and group exhibitions in Sydney NSW and South Australia, and she continues to explore the intersections between personal expression, community, and place. When not in the studio, you’ll likely find her immersed in the coastal landscape that fuels her work, working with community or sharing her creativity through workshops and local collaborations.
