Jordan Funk is an artist based in Denton, Texas. She received her BFA in photography from Texas Woman's University in 2019 and earned her MFA in Photography and Related Media from Rochester Institute of Technology in 2021. Her work explores themes of identity, memory, and mental health, navigating how these complex forces shape our personal environments and landscapes.
Jordan primarily works with Polaroid photography, drawn to the medium for its immediacy, nostalgia, and tactile quality. A polaroid's unpredictability is a metaphor for the delicate and often fleeting nature of memory and mental health. Each image is a small, intimate moment suspended in time, a piece of personal history that is both malleable and impermanent. The fragile, one-off nature of the film mirrors the instability and fluidity of our uniquely human moments.
