Jac Nelson


IF I USE THE WORD WHITE, panels 1-3








Jac Nelson is a multimedia poet living between the Puget Sound and Minnesota River Valley regions, USA. Their work deals primarily with the ethical lives of art and the artist as these emerge from a context of inheritance: ancestry, language, land, trauma, coercion, and decision activate their aesthetic search for multigenerational healing and connection. Recent work was shown at Gay City in Seattle Wa, and published by Black Warrior Review, Blackbox Manifold, and Fanzine. Find the artist at jacnelson.portland_at_gmail_dot_com; instagram @jacxnelson.

He writes: "The work begins with the assertion that there is a silence around whiteness, complex and deeply entrenched, a silence that enables and protects white supremacy. The work attempts first to hear the voice “that blatantly works against talking about race talking about race,” and then, through content, process, form, and medium, to exhibit the suppressed voice, and through its exhibition, to eat a destructive hole through the gauze that preserves whiteness."

(This work was made possible through a Vermont Studio Center artist’s grant and residency.)
