My Story
My grandma mormor's summer house in the 1980s
About Jennie Vercouteren (n. Nevin)
My first inspiration came from my grandmother’s seaside tiny home in Denmark, filled with her handmade creations and a garden alive with birds. From her, I learned that art and nature can naturally weave into everyday life.
My journey later led me to the worlds of business and ecology. I founded Green Spaces in New York and Denver, running it for ten years and nurturing a vibrant community where festivals, events, art shows, and entrepreneurs could thrive together around the theme of ecology. Our work drew attention from hundreds of publications, including The New York Times, BBC World News, Tokyo TV, and The New York Post, reflecting the influence of this creative, eco-focused community.
Since moving to France in 2018, I have embraced a slower, more personal way of life. Ceramics, photography, writing, and ecological projects have become my ways of exploring the connection between humans and nature, following curiosity wherever it leads.
