JACKSON PATTERSON
Recollected Memories

The annihilation of space and time through the advent of photography in the mid nineteenth century transformed American life. We are in the midst of a furthering of that annihilation. Through photomontage I am exploring the narrative that emerges between subject, space and time. The work reflects various photographs that I have taken merged with others from my family’s albums. I find myself inspired by the stories that come in to focus when we collocate the medium of photography with twenty-first century technological practices, cultural influences, and the personal history of family. Blending the ideas of personal and collective memory each piece possesses its own original story. Recollected Memories explores insights on photography, representation, fabrication, time, and visual language.
