feverdream’s New Artist Resident: Jihad Dennis

Jihad Dennis

feverdream welcomes Jihad Dennis as the Summer resident where he will be hard at work in the Mezzanine Studio from May 15th to August 15th!

Jihad Dennis is an artist, designer, photographer, writer, and videographer based in Akron OH. A graduate of Pratt Institute Jihad has produced work for SLAM Magazine, Milk Studios, and Redscout Agency. Jihad started Jihad Paints in 2019 as a painting studio but quickly expanded its reach to web shows, music collaborations, and animation.

His artwork combines mixed media, photoshop, and photography to create memorable energized images of celebrities, friends, and family. He continually paints as a gesture for continued exploration and refinement of craft, viewing fellow creatives as friends, and encouraging their continued creative endeavors alongside them.   

Jihad has already started his residency as of May 15th, and will finish his stay on August 15th! Jihad’s proposed body of work will be painted collages of important cultural symbolism from the 1970s.
