Jennifer Moore, Photographer & Artist

My work investigates the psychological terrain of experience—how relationships, identity, gender, and the inevitability of loss shape the narratives we carry within us. Through a photographic practice that blends personal experiences and ideas with surreal construction, I examine the tensions between the visible and the internal, the intimate and the archetypal. Much of my imagery emerges from the shifting roles of motherhood and womanhood, tracing the ways these identities are formed, fractured, and reassembled over time.

Using symbolism, staged environments, and the body as a site of both vulnerability and agency, I create images that move between reality and metaphor. The surreal allows me to articulate emotional truths that resist direct depiction—grief becomes landscape, identity becomes gesture, and the everyday becomes a container for the uncanny. My work seeks to hold space for the complexity of being human: the tenderness and the rupture, the fading and the becoming. Ultimately, I am interested in how photographs can function as both testimony and transformation, revealing not only what has been lived, but what is still unfolding.
