Tania Tesser is a mixed media artist and native New Yorker. She has spent the last 10 years working in fashion helping drive designer brand growth and identifying trends in the industry. The fashion world provided a window into the driving forces of modern consumerism which she believes has re-shaped society in a fundamental way and led her to explore her ideas through various artistic mediums. Tania’s art focuses on the juxtaposition of the pretension and beauty that underpins both modern fashion and society at large. The key theme that pervades Tania’s art is this interplay between opposing forces which coalesce into something simultaneously both greater than and less than the whole. Her pieces are not intended to comment on the nature of modern society but instead holds a lens up to it which reveals layers of complexity that are often obscured by its highly curated exterior.
