Jessica Lee Breed is a multidisciplinary artist, designer, and art director whose work moves between painting, textiles, photography, writing, and visual systems. Her practice is rooted in atmosphere, perception, and the subtle ways material and memory shape how we feel, see, and understand. Working across mediums, she approaches image-making as a form of embodied inquiry.
She studied at Virginia Commonwealth University and the Savannah College of Art and Design, and began her career in fashion and film in New York City. Her former fashion label and textile work were carried internationally, cultivating a sensibility grounded in material sensitivity and refined visual language.
In parallel with her studio practice, Jess works as a designer and creative director through Daybook Project, where she guides artists and designers in clarifying their aesthetic logic and visual identity.
She is the founder and creative director of Mother Mother Mother, a biannual art and literary publication.
Across all facets of her practice, the work operates through atmosphere rather than declaration, inviting a slower, more attentive way of seeing. She is deeply interested in how emotion moves through the body, and how creative practice can serve as a site of processing, translation, and connection.
