BIO
Jackson Bryant (b. 1993) is a multidisciplinary artist who lives and works in Upstate, NY. He studied photography and drawing at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and then graduated from Skidmore College with his BA in Anthropology. After college, he began working as a printer at a historic reproduction block-printing wallpaper company which he still does to this day. His work has been exhibited in the Albany Museum of History and Art, the Barrett Arts Center, the Laffer Gallery, the Schick Art Gallery as well as in Yale University’s environmentally focused publication Sage Magazine.
STATEMENT
These drawings are two dimensional spaces to explore narratives that reflect on my disjointed relationship to animals and nature as a suburbanite. Inspired by an ongoing collaborative comic/poetry illustration project with my brother who is an environmental sociologist and PhD candidate at Yale’s School of the Environment, I have turned towards exploring the natural work in my personal work. In contrast to my collaborative work which explicitly incorporates text, this series of drawings utilizes a narrative and direct comic approach, which leaves it to the viewer to interpret the symbols and characters depicted.
