Jill Greenberg
Los Angeles - photographers
Since the age of 10, Jill Greenberg has staged photographs and created characters using the mediums of drawing, painting, sculpture, film and photography.
She is known worldwide for her uniquely human animal portraits which intentionally anthropomorphise her subjects, as well as her infamous series 'End Times'. Her newest work marks a return to the post-modern feminist theory that inspired her senior thesis, 'The Female Object' as an art student at RISD in the 80s: “The disciplinary project of femininity” and the predetermined failure of all women who attempt to “succeed” at it. 'Glass Ceiling' will be a featured exhibition at the Scotiabank Contact Photo Festival in Toronto during April.
Jill also recently won in the personal/fine art category of the APA contest.
