Jordan Wolfson

Jordan Wolfson has established himself as one of America’s most ambitious and provocative artists, with a practice encompassing video, film, installation, virtual reality, performance, print, and photography. His recent work often employs animation, digital imaging, and animatronic sculpture.

Wolfson’s art centers on the interplay between literal and virtual reality, examining the distinction between the real and the imagined. He explores how inner impulses—desire, optimism, violence, or guilt—are projected into constructed selves and scenarios.

Confronting his subject matter with urgency, Wolfson’s work functions as a potent social critique. He interrogates the discomforts and deeply embedded flaws within Western societal structures and practices, including sexuality, racism, sexism, anti-Semitism, and violence.
