"Disappearing Sun" has closed. Grateful to everyone in Nassau who went. Thank you to @terngallery as always, and the team - @coulson_amanda , @lauren.h.perez , @alexia_chatelle , @romelshearer - for trusting and supporting the vision. This final section of the show, moves into the deepest register. As light recedes, structure is tested. Within this friction, the works do not perform closure, they endure it. #disappearingsun #terngallery 1.

My first solo show with @terngallery , "Disappearing Sun", opens next Thursday in Nassau. 'These new paintings explore the cyclical phenomenon of time as observed through nature, Jackson uses the daypoints of “sunrise, day, sunset, and dusk” as a means of thinking about heritage, identity, and the fragile continuity of culture in the ever-shifting Caribbean. Disappearing Sun questions how culture persists in a region where the past is continually overwritten by tourism, globalisation, and the relentless acceleration of the modern world. The show will run from January 15th - February 28th.' selenelion, 2025 acrylic, sandstone, acrylic resin, silver thatch palm, and synthetic wax on canvas. 11 h x 14 w (inch) #terngallery #disappearingsun

while making this piece, i studied how a thatch roof supports itself: how each frond depends on the next, how the beams shoulder the weight. our surroundings speak through these quiet architectures. they belong to us, our people, and the stories that shaped us, even before words. exhibited at @expochicago with @terngallery , april 2025. “boatswains (study)”, (2025)  acrylic, sandstone, acrylic resin, silver thatch palm, and synthetic wax on canvas. 45 x 35 cm. #expochicago #terngallery

This is the largest work I’ve made to date. Opening tonight at @natgalcayman for 𝑨𝒓𝒄𝒉𝒊𝒑𝒆𝒍𝒂𝒈𝒐𝒔, curated by @davin.ebanks and Joseph Underwood. Huge thank you to the NGCI team for trusting me with this massive installation (250+ lbs). Big up Mr. Garfield, Jackson Sr, @wahelfrecht , and the whole install crew. It takes an army to install, and they never get enough credit. See you all tonight. ossa (2025) 96 X 94 inches acrylic, sandstone, acrylic resin, silver thatch palm, and synthetic wax on canvas, mounted on pressure-treated frame.
