Education

In 2004, Jemima Wyman embarked on her artistic journey in Los Angeles after being awarded a studio residency at the 18th Street Arts Center in Santa Monica. This residency, established by the Australian Government, provided artists with a unique opportunity to live and work abroad for a period of three months. Following her residency, Jemima Wyman received a fully-funded scholarship created by Anne and Gordon Samstag, an American couple dedicated to supporting Australian artists. This scholarship enabled Jemima Wyman, as an Australian artist, to pursue graduate studies anywhere in the world, covering all associated expenses. With this scholarship, she chose to attend the California Institute of the Arts where she graduated from with a Master of Fine Art in 2007.
