Jeanne Marie Martineau is a French-American transdisciplinary artist who weaves various mediums of object making, dream tending, writing, song, and sound meditation into a unified peace practice and experiences of artistic self-discovery for others. As an urban alchemist, Jeanne Marie reincarnates found plastic waste into adornment and ritual objects. Starting with the personal, she follows romance and engages with imaginal realms, translating her own spiritual practices into works and group experiences that aim to expand capacity for love and acceptance.
