jda is a digital artist exploring the experience of cultural duality, the tragedy and comedy of capital and consumer culture, and new and innovative ways to deflect the male gaze. these themes cross over and intersect using familiar cultural signifiers and multimedia techniques to engage audiences.
born in 1983 to australian and turkish parents, jda was an avid collector of hip hop music as a child, which led to a dj career in her teens. in 2012, she studied digital art at southbank university in london and began creating video art for live music and dj performances. as jda continued to develop her skills in graphic design, video effects, animation and web development, she began further exploring self-expression through these visual mediums.
jda is currently based in new york and has been involved in the curation of exhibitions and displayed work in sydney, london, tokyo, new york, athens and bangkok. she continues her work as a digital artist exploring visuals and sound.
