About usJennifer Chenoweth’s background is in visual art and the humanities. She makes contemporary artworks in any material that fits the idea, from drawings to large sculpture to social practice collaborations. Her project the XYZ Atlas mapped how we experience belonging, which culminated in a TEDMED talk released in 2018. She now curates the Oakwood Cemetery Chapel in Austin, Texas to consider the purpose of our lives in the context of a historic cemetery.
