Jemima Brown
Untitled Profile Pictures is an ongoing drawing project in which Jemima has experimented with the visual translation of a virtual social structure in a series of drawings of Facebook profile pictures. From the lo-res pixilated images of ‘profile pictures’ she has made to date nearly 200 drawings of her own Facebook friends (always choosing an image from their profile pictures in order that the choice of image is their choice for a public image). For her presentation at PAPER, Jemima will show a selection of these drawings selected from PAPER’s and Jemima’s mutual Facebook friends. Biography Jemima Brown is based in London and has exhibited widely both nationally and internationally since graduating from an MA at Chelsea School of Art in 1995.

She has also had solo exhibitions with Vilma Gold, Rosie Wilde, and the Agency in London. Past awards have included a Fulbright Scholarship at UCLA, Los Angeles, and the Cocheme Fellowship at Byam Shaw, University of the Arts.
