Recently The Gordon Parks Foundation discovered over 70 unpublished photographs by Parks at the bottom of an old storage box wrapped in paper and marked as “Segregation Series.” These never before series of images not only give us a glimpse into the everyday life of African Americans during the 50′s but are also in full color, something that is uncommon for photographs from that era.
With a nature documentarian’s eye, photographer and sculptor Thomas Jackson builds and photographs swarms of mundane objects. Plates, glow sticks, cheese balls and cups seem to float and flutter in uniform formations, mimicking the patterns of delicate hummingbirds and butterflies. Jackson seeks to minimize the role of digital editing in his work; he builds and hangs the arrangements of objects in natural settings, only using Photoshop to remove the evidence of the sculptures’ skeletons.
