About the Artist
Jordan Rae Grant is a multidisciplinary artist, musician, and writer, currently working towards her BFA in Studio Art at Belmont University and will complete her studies in May of 2028. She is based between Nashville and Kentucky, where she works primarily as a painter, creating small-scale commission and portfolio work, as well as large-scale murals for both businesses and individual residences. She uses her combined rural and urban perspective to create work that explores humanity in all of its devastating beauty, using mainly figural forms alongside scenes and motifs from the natural world to explore intense emotion and connection in her work, digging deeper into the many layers of the human condition.
Jordan has exhibited with MADE Foundation (in their show Render) and the Scholastic Art + Writing Awards, interned with Nashville painter Caitlin Shirock, and currently works as Events & Operations Coordinator at Smart Art + Craft Supplies, a Nashville nonprofit dedicated to providing employment and job training to adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities while saving used art and craft supplies from the landfill and putting them back in the hands of Nashville’s creatives.
