Watkins Press — 473 Main St.
Abandoned buildings and historical architecture capture my attention as a way to
explore the untold stories that linger about the ruins. I use these settings as a way
to transcend the past, and investigate present dilemmas that are illuminated by
what remains.

Jojo’s work has been exhibited and published, and she has received residency grants to The MacDowell Colony in New Hampshire, and The Helene Wurlitzer Foundation in New Mexico. Jojo currently lives in Kingston, NY, where she resumes shooting with film in her 8” x 10” pinhole camera, and makes her platinum/palladium prints using the sunlight.
