Aim:
Walsh aims to curate work with a sense of humour for people to experience something, whether that is to get them thinking, brings them joy, or is work that inspires. Her playful artistic style is often described as being “bold, emotional, and proactive” tied with surrealistic visions , blending handcraft, photography, painting with digital design (Design Phenom Jessica Walsh, 2020).
Walsh’s work stands out from the rest due to her creativity that comes from where she states, “unexpected connections and oftentimes mixing existing ideas in new ways.”(Design Phenom Jessica Walsh, 2020). In presenting work that is different from the rest, avoiding repetition, and temporary trends, Walsh tends to stray away from inspiration within her own field, where she's encouraged and influenced by anything she has experienced, done, or dreamed of. Her creative outlook that is planted in her work originates from creative work from a vast genre of artistic mediums: from painting, sculpture, fashion, furniture design, to photography from museums and shows. At her present studio, &Walsh, she focuses on creating work that maintains a long lifespan of relevancy with branding that is both fresh and relevant even after a decade.
