Thomas Jackson will lead a field trip to Ballston Beach in Truro, where he will construct and photograph a live installation at the water’s edge. Participants are welcome to take an active role in the process or to simply observe. Whether just stopping by or engrossing yourself in Jackson’s work, join us from 4pm to sunset at Ballston Beach.
Thomas Jackson was born in Philadelphia and grew up in Providence, Rhode Island. After earning a B.A. in History from the College of Wooster, he spent his early career in New York working first in book publishing, then as a magazine editor. An interest in photography books eventually led him to pick up a camera, shooting Garry Winogrand-inspired street scenes, then landscapes, and finally the installation work he does today. Jackson’s work has been exhibited widely, including at The Brooks Museum in Memphis, Tennessee and the Bolinas Museum in Bolinas, CA, and has been published in The New Yorker, Harper’s, Wired and elsewhere.
