Jamie Isenstein is an American artist.

Work

[edit]

Jamie Isenstein works in sculpture, drawing, and performance. In conversation with Friday Arts on the occasion of the 2025 exhibition Body / Body / Body, in which her work was shown alongside Fabienne Lasserre and Sophy Naess, Isenstein stated: "My work has always grappled with political questions, especially work that uses disembodied body parts. When I use my own body, or now other people’s—sometimes it's a hand or feet or a leg—there's this question of subject and object. Am I the subject or have I become an object? There are questions of power. Am I going to be the object and be the thing that power is acted upon, or am I making an object into a subject that has some sort of agency?" [1]

Isenstein has received numerous reviews and mentions in the art press. Her work has been described by art critic Roberta Smith as "cryptic and light, with an undertow of sorrow."[2] The critic David Velasco described her signature as "sculptures that use parts of her own living body as material".[3]
