Jacob Stiltner is an American artist, born and raised in Miami, Florida; where he continues to reside. Jacob has always had a talent for the arts. His mediums of choice are drawing and painting. He had always struggled to find his artistic voice until he returned back to his childhood home. Here he grew up and now takes care of his grandparents who have fallen ill. It was this call to action where he had to utilize his talents to overcome these hard times. Jacob recreates forms that are typically found in the home that then reconnect back to the human body and mind. Many of these pieces build on themes of health and relationships between our family and ourselves. He has received his Associates in Arts from Miami Dade College and his BA from Florida International University. He continues his education at Florida International University and is in pursuit of his Master’s degree.
