MCC Fine Arts Gallery

10/16/2026

On display now in the MCC Fine Arts Gallery: the ethereal and otherworldly works of Jen Mones.

Mones creates oil paintings that explore themes of psychology, philosophy, spirituality, and humanity’s complex relationship with nature. Influenced by artists like Soey Milk, Artemisia Gentileschi, and Remedios Varo, her work delves into the surreal, often touching on the occult feminine and figures such as Persephone and Artemis. Her translucent layered colors bring light to the beauty and pain of human existence. The vibrant colors and tropical flora in her work are influenced by her roots in Colombia and the Dominican Republic, where her parents are from. Mones has exhibited in over 40 shows throughout Detroit- including three solo exhibitions at Congregation in Detroit, New Dodge Lounge in Hamtramck, and Two James in Corktown. Her work has been featured in venues such as Playground Detroit, Gallery 46, Garage Cultural, and the Detroit Artists Market.

Located in the Visual Arts and Design Center on Mott's Main Campus, Mott's Fine Arts Gallery is free and open to the public. We are open Mon-Fri from 9am-4:30pm.

Heads Up: If you are coming to the Student Art Show tonight, several of our parking lots are currently under construction. There is limited parking on the south side of the Visual Arts and Design Center building and Public Safety. The ramp on the north-east side of Curtice-Mott and the flat lot by Prahl and the Mott Library will probably be the easiest to park in. See you tonight!
