Jana Stuntz is a Filipino-Australian artist based in New York.

Born and raised in the Philippines, she began drawing at a young age and started working as a fashion model in her teens while pursuing a degree in architecture. She graduated in 2016.

After graduating, she moved to Melbourne, reflecting her father’s Australian heritage. Motivated by her early exposure to art and fashion, she later traveled through Europe and lived in London during the pandemic before establishing herself in New York City. Modeling created opportunities to be based in these cities and exposed her to diverse creative communities. Throughout these transitions, art remained a consistent and personal practice.

Lila is her studio.
