Jessica Segall is a multi-disciplinary artist based in Brooklyn, NY. Her work is often sited in hostile and threatened landscapes. By embedding her work in these sites, she plays with the risk of engaging with the environment and the vulnerability of the environment itself. She has exhibited internationally, most recently at the Fries Museum, The Coreana Museum of Art and Havana Biennall. Segall has received grants from The Pollock Krasner Foundation, The Rema Hort Mann Foundation, New York Foundation for the Arts, New York State Council on the Arts, The Harpo Foundation and Art Matters, and has attended residencies at The Van Eyck Academie, MacDowell and Skowhegan. She received her MFA from Columbia University and her BA from Bard College.

Segall is the fall quarter teaching artist in residence in The California Studio: Manetti Shrem Artist Residencies at UC Davis. Organized by The California Studio in the Department of Art and Art History. Co-sponsored by the Jan Shrem and Maria Manetti Shrem Museum of Art.
