Jamil G Baldwin was raised in and has worked across the Inland Empire and Los Angeles. Baldwin’s work physicalizes and spatializes social empathy, becoming an interlocutor of neighborhood memory and class solidarity. Utilizing mixed-media and installation-based sculptural photography, Baldwin makes work that requires the audience to practice liberatory gestures of reorientation.
His images have been exhibited at the Sculpture Center, PioneerWorks, Band of Vices, Belfast Photo Festival, Lagos Photo Festival, and included in the following publications: New York Times, Aperture, Matte Editions, Summer of Something Special, JRNL, and Callaloo.
