Jessica Mallios

About the Artist

An abiding interest in the physicality of light and space as captured in photographic, time-based, and installation practices informs Jessica Mallios’ work. Photographs depend on chance, the unpredictable behavior of light, and subsequent chemical transformations which illustrate photography’s potential as active and unfixed. That photography is both malleable yet tenacious inspires the conceptual framework of her work. New filmwork explores the notion of light through yet another perspective as Mallios investigates the history and significance of women lighthouse keepers.
