Jen Davis: Self Portraits

aCurator is pleased to begin a new year with an artist whose work I have admired for some time.

Jen Davis’ photographs have been widely exhibited since she graduated with her BA in 2002 (she subsequently gained an MFA in Photography from Yale University School of Art in 2008), and I have seen them in many, varied locations, most recently as part of <a href=”http://andyadamsphoto.com/100portraits/”>FlakPhoto’s 100 Portraits</a> series. Brian Clamp introduced me to her photographs some time ago. It wasn’t until I met her at Aperture’s annual benefit, in November, that I worked up courage to press her about a feature. She kindly pulled the images together during the holidays and here we are. Thanks to mutual friend, photographer Adam Krause, for endorsing me.
