Jennifer Basile
Jennifer Basile (b. 1973, Manhasset, NY) earned her Master of Fine Arts in Painting & Printmaking at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (1999), and her Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting & Printmaking at the University of Miami (1996). She is in her 20th year as an art educator at Miami-Dade College. Basile’s love for the environment is rooted in her childhood when she discovered its avenues of escapism and meditation. Throughout her extensive travels and perfected talent, she has combined this passion with the long sought-after tradition of landscape renderings which she adopted and transformed through her printing practice. In time, she has developed a narrative around advocacy and awareness using her art as a platform to discuss the pertinent issues affecting the world we live in.
Jennifer Basile has been represented by LnS Gallery since 2017 and has presented major solo exhibitions including The Power of Print: Iconic Images of the American Landscape (April 27 – August 3, 2019) and Lasting Impressions: A Cessation of Existence (September 16 – November 19, 2022). She has also been the recipient of numerous grants, residency, and public art projects including Disappearing Treasures (2021), viewable at the Underline at Brickell Metrorail Station (Miami, FL).
