Amanda Rowan is an award-winning multidisciplinary artist from the Bay Area whose work examines the intersection of identity, consumption, and representation through photography, performance, and film. Her practice interrogates power dynamics and agency within contemporary visual culture through a feminist lens that challenges traditional narratives around the body and domesticity. Known for her bold, surreal imagery and distinctive cinematic vision, Rowan creates immersive narratives that bridge fine art and emotional truth, often exploring themes of labor, femininity, and media consumption. A cum laude graduate of NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, her work has earned international recognition including the Aesthetica Art Prize and the Julia Margaret Cameron Award, and is held in permanent collections alongside renowned artists including Damien Hirst, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Andy Warhol. As an educator and curator based in Los Angeles, she develops critical frameworks exploring technology, ethics, and intersectional discourse in contemporary art while continuing to create acclaimed films and photographic series that reclaim and reimagine the female experience.
