About Photographs

So, with their deep shadows and tight framing, the images in Photographs have an unmistakeably cinematic quality. Furthermore, each layered image leaves a breadcrumb trail of associations that extend far beyond it’s initial context. However, despite Jack’s recent successes, he remains humble and all-encompassing in his photography. And the book indistinguishably shifts from staged, meticulous editorial setups to simple everyday occurrences, infused with mystery and depth. Two recurring motifs in Davison’s work are the hand and the eye: here a clenched fist, there caressing a face. Here glaring out from a billboard and elsewhere shimmering in a reflection. They represent a dynamic tension within Davison’s work. The one of seeing versus feeling, or the threshold between perception and imagination. In conclusion, the delicate sequence in Photographs hovers between these two states. It creates a complex, soulful interpretation of the world through Jack's enigmatic portraits, landscapes and still lifes.
