JACKSON PATTERSON

Jackson Patterson’s Recollected Memories series adheres to an artistic vision that prizes innovation and new formal characteristics in artistic media.

He includes "off-camera" memories in dreamlike landscapes, thereby revealing a location’s historic density with a performative process.

Patterson has created a new method that allows two takes of reality to co-exist in his photographic works. This produces a complex visual narrative in images of a memory lost.
