Melissa Jordan (b.1984, Cambridge, UK) is an artist living and working in London. Her work explores the physicality of photographs through their transformation into sculptures and layered photographs. These works, with their added plasticity, question the flatness of images and the way we experience them in our digital driven daily lives. 
 
She received a BA in Sculpture from Chelsea College of Art in 2006. She was awarded an MA in Sculpture from the Royal College of Art in 2009, receiving a distinction for her research.
