ABOUT
MEET JANE
Jane Rivar is an accomplished singer, songwriter, storyteller, and visual artist best known for her beautiful mixed-media feather art. Her unique feather art form was born during a period in her life when she was immobilized from a severe case of Lyme’s disease. She draws inspiration from the natural world, bringing art to life from life itself.
Her latest collection, titled "Reclaimed Wonders," showcases an array of vibrant installations that invite viewers to see the potential in forgotten objects. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for the environment, Jane meticulously assembles each sculpture, finding the perfect place for each element.
Jane’s original artworks are recognized internationally and held in private collections in New York, Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, and London. Using her variety of art forms, including music, the spoken word, and visual arts, Jane’s mission is to share wisdom and beauty and help others discover the transforming power of living a fulfilled, creative life.
UPCYCLED ART
Jane believes that art is not only about creating beauty but also about fostering sustainability and appreciation for the world around us. Her captivating work encourages a deeper reflection on our relationship with nature and the impact of our consumption.
Jane’s foray into the field of upcycled art stems from a desire to inspire others to look at waste differently—to see discarded items as building blocks rather than burdens. Using items sourced from her local landfill—cracked pottery, rusty scrap metal, broken lamps, and more—Jane creates eclectic, one-of-a-kind garden art pieces.
Each piece tells a story of transformation, breathing new life into what once was discarded and serving as a testament to the power of creativity and the endless possibilities that arise when we choose to see beauty in the unexpected.
