About Me

Jenny‑BM is a Congolese‑British mixed‑media artist, designer, and poet whose work moves between emotion, culture, and bold visual storytelling. Born in Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of Congo and raised in West London, she creates from the crossroads of identity, memory, and rhythm.

Working across collage, digital art, painting, and editorial‑style mixed media, Jenny’s practice is rooted in neo‑expressionism and the raw honesty of lived experience. Her pieces often weave together themes of love, nostalgia, spirituality, and the body — drawing on the symbolism of the Heart and Sacral chakras to explore healing, creativity, and connection.

Her artistic influences include the fearless energy of Jean‑Michel Basquiat, the narrative power of Paula Rego, and the experimental collage traditions of Hannah Höch, John Heartfield, and Romare Bearden. These inspirations echo through her layered compositions, where texture, colour, and emotion collide.

In 2025, Jenny expanded her creative universe with the launch of Death By Colours, an art‑driven clothing brand transforming her illustrations into expressive streetwear. The brand reflects her belief that art should be lived in, worn, and carried into the world.

Jenny’s work has travelled internationally, including a group exhibition in Amsterdam, and she continues to build a vibrant presence in the UK art scene. In 2025, she showcased and sold prints and merchandise at the Bow Arts Art Stall, connecting directly with collectors and supporters who resonate with her bold visual language.
