Baillie Jackson

Baillie Jackson is a Naarm-based artist whose identity sits at the forefront of their practice. Their thinking manifests in relation to their experiences with queerness, fandom, obsession, and depression. Jackson sets out to resolve their tensions with the fleeting nature of certain concepts such as time and memory through tangible artforms, including photographs, journal entries, clay and textile works, in an effort to immortalise the fast-paced world that envelops them. The traversal of various materials in this thematic exploration is key to their practice, allowing them to experimentally portray the delicacy of tender memories and the simultaneous simplicity and tumult of being alive.
