Jessica Ralph (She/Her) born in the UK (1998) graduated from BA Fine Art at Loughborough University in 2021. Currently based within the East Midlands, she has recently worked in a multidisciplinary art space within the centre of Nottingham. Jessica has participated in different art projects coordinating both exhibitions and participatory workshops. She has also exhibited in a diverse range of spaces across the UK. 

Jessica’s practice analyses our everyday experiences to present personal narratives. Various happenings are performed for the camera to document the authentic human experience, evoking a heightened sense of reality. Her raw approach aims to connect the viewer through depicting familiarity and moments that often reflect on childhood. Through moving-image and photography, the artist captures a tacit sense of longing, sentimentality and togetherness. 

Jessica gently invites the viewer to spectate and reflect on their own relationships to highlight our human need for belonging. This prompted introspection aims to deal with urgent matters of dysphoria, loneliness and emotional disconnect.
