Tomashi Jackson – Valade Speaker Series

Presented by CCS’s Studio Art & Craft Department

RSVP

This artist lecture is free and open to the general public, sponsored by the Valade Speaker Series, and presented by CCS’s Studio Art and Craft department.

Tomashi Jackson combines practices of painting, printmaking, and sculpture with archival research in areas of public infrastructure policy. The work interrogates intersections between formal languages of visual art and political languages driving histories of segregation, voting rights, education, transportation, labor, and housing in the United States. Considering color as both chromatic and social, Jackson’s work embraces compositional abstraction to investigate the interaction of color and its impact on the perceived value of human life in public space.

Jackson’s solo museum exhibitions include Across the Universe organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art, Denver (2023), and traveling to the Institute of Contemporary Art, Philadelphia.

Jackson is represented by Tilton Gallery, NYC.
