Using photography, video, notes, and journal texts, Jazmine. deconstructs and embellishes personal, communal, and social political narratives. Memory, found and fabricated, serves as primary material, while the acts of remembrance inform and shape the processes she employs. In addressing the beauty and failure of collective memory, Jazmine. mines, co-creates, and collages archival materials seeking to democratize associated practices, while emphasizing the importance of connection, space, and reimagining the everyday familiar and unknown.

Jazmine. holds a BS from Florida A&M University, an MFA from The University of Chicago, and was recently an artist participant at the Skowhegan School of Painting & Sculpture. She is currently pursuing her MRes in Anthropology at the University College of London as a US-UK Fulbright awardee. Previously, she has been selected as a HATCH Resident with Chicago Artist Coalition, Writing Fellow with A Public Space, Hopper Prize awardee, grantee for Kartemquin Films, Newcity Breakout artist, EXPO Chicago and DCASE OVERRIDE | A Billboard Project artist, and DCASE Individual Artists Program grantee.
