Bill Jackson
Edit ProfileCareer
He first exhibited at The Photographers" Gallery in the exhibition Fleeting Gestures. His work was seen at the History of Dance Photography collection selected by Bill Jay of the International Center of Photography Gallery in New New York In 1986 he began working with early computer graphic systems and by 1991 this experimental work using film and digital combinations was shown at a conference on the future of photography at the National Museum of Photography, Film and Television (now the National Media Museum) in Bradford.
Jackson was one of the first United Kingdom film based photographers to go over to digital imaging in 1985.
He lives and works in London. His work is in many private and art trust collections.
Every now and then, with a bit of luck, an artist will produce exceptional work that immediately demands attention. This is the case with Bill Jackson’s Morphenia, a suite of sixteen computer generated digital prints.
(Nick Smale - Artspace Magazine) His imagery was as spiky, robust and eclectic as an Hieronymus Bosch and his use of colour and ornamentation as rich and luscious as any Dutch old master.
(Peter McCarthy - Visual Arts Magazine).
