Of Fire, Far Shining

J.A. Young

$45.00 Sale

The culmination of meticulous research and intuitive experimentation, American multimedia artist and photographer J.A. Young’s first monograph, Of Fire, Far Shining, is a non-rational, starkly intimate body of work devoid of classical ordering principles.

Using both personal photographs and public domain archival images as raw materials, Young radically decontextualizes and transmutes these forms, immersing the viewer in a world where the utility of the image is dissolved and new, evocative meanings can emerge.

Through a layered process of dramatic recomposition, physical print manipulation, and rephotography, Young unravels an intensely emotional and associative narrative that explores what it feels like to live in an era marked by rampant militarization, technological hyper-violence, and unrelenting ecological devastation.
