Jocelyn Chemel – Studio 14

Jocelyn was born in South Africa during the apartheid era and uses collage, digital photography, tape, paint, and mark making to accentuate the layered nature of her practice. Earlier work reflected her interest in landscape as she used barbed wire in abstracted environments as a symbol of how people were kept out in a divided country. Her current pieces focus on the shifting landscapes of glaciers, what lies beneath, and to draw attention to the instability and fragility of our world.
Jocelyn has been a jewelry designer for 20 years and an art teacher, having taught decorative painting to adults and art to children.
She has taken many courses in design, digital photography, and mixed media at the Museum of Fine Arts School in Boston as well as courses at Mass College of Art.
