Jeanne: The Print Center 91st Annual International Competition Solo Exhibitions, Philadelphia, PA

A lot of my work, whether it’s cast in ash, or nicotine, is purely photographic. It all inhabits this zone between being and not being. More hovering, more loss captured in a fragile, deteriorating piece of paper.

- TR Ericsson

With conceptual rigor and emotional directness, TR Ericsson uses the archive which chronicles his family’s painful past to explore the healing powers of commemoration and memory. He grapples with the powerful information contained within the archival materials of three generations to define both yesterday and tomorrow, as both slowly vanish as time passes.
