Jessica Eaton is interested in expanding the conceptual framework of photography. Any abstraction in her works is created from elements found in all photographs — elements pushed to the surface through reductive strategies. Increasingly, her ideas are inspired by and are in dialogue with the consequences of digitization. The cube utilized as a potentially neutral form bears witness to a phenomenon inherent to the usually invisible dimension of photography. Through modular studies, various explorations of optics, perception, illusion, time, spatial relationships, digital metaphors, and additive colour theory are able to become an apparent subject of the photograph.
