Amy Jacobs is an artist and extremely skilled paper maker who works with the nonprofit Dieu Donné as their Co-Director of Artistic Projects and Master Collaborator. She works with the institution to serve established and emerging artists through the collaborative creation of contemporary art using paper making.

Amy’s favorite tool is a good pair of sharp tweezers and the Fogg It nozzle.
