About

Vanessa Spollen is a Brooklyn-based artist, born and raised in Southern New Jersey. Spollen explores the subconscious mind through oil and acrylic paint. Inspired by existence, nature, and mysticism, her process begins with familiar images in mind, which leads to connection through lines, shapes, and colors on the canvas. Vanessa received her Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2018 from Stockton University where she studied Painting. Spollen is currently an MFA candidate at the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan in the Painting Department, scheduled for graduation in 2023.
