Jennifer Hartley Illanes is a multimedia artist working in Calgary as a Studio Assistant with Natalie Gerber. Her practice makes use of fibre arts, digital media, sculpture, and performance. She holds a BFA with distinction in Sculpture from The Alberta University of the Arts, and received the Board of Governors Graduating Student Award in 2016.  

Jennifer has participated in the Contextural Fibre Arts Residency, the AUArts Artist in Residency Program with a focus on Mental Health Awareness, and has shown her work in galleries in Alberta and Manitoba. She is currently working on a project "Pilgrimage of Stories and Stones" that has been funded by Calgary Arts Development.

By making use of literary and historical symbols and stories, she binds the past with the contemporary in an attempt to evaluate our society through the lens of previous centuries. ​
