Jason Albuquerque (b. 1998, Olinda, Brazil) is a multidisciplinary artist working at the intersection of photography, installation, and visual poetry. His practice interrogates the fragility of selfhood—what is lost, what remains, and what new forms emerge from the fracturing of one's identity. His practice explores transformation through radical vulnerability—using photography not as a means of preservation, but as a space for "decreation," dissolution, and reinvention.
As a first-generation queer immigrant, Jason's work dissects the complex, often violent nature of “taking” photographs by placing himself and his loved ones in front of the camera, embracing vulnerability as a form of queer resistance. His work has been exhibited internationally in Brazil, Germany, Italy, and the United States. He holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a concentration in Photography from Cornell University and is currently based in New York, where he continues to expand his practice.
