Dugan share their motivations and hopes for QFest and queer storytelling in St. Louis.

Work by St. Louis-based photographer Jess T. Dugan blends photographs and text in an exhibit at University Galleries. Called "I Want Your to Know My Story," the show journeys through portraiture and still life with a queer lens — but it's not about queerness.

In this episode, Gem Fletcher chats with artist Jess T. Dugan. They discuss what it takes to cultivate and maintain an artistic practice, what Jess learned from their own journey, and how the mantra "meet everyone, learn everything," fuelled their approach to both crafting a practice and a business.

The St. Louis Art Museum added six images from St. Louis photographer Jess T. Dugan to its permanent collection. Dugan's work has been praised as “gorgeously sensitive portraits of queer love.” T,” but their latest photobook, “Look at me like you love me,” turns the camera on the photographer as well.

Jess Dugan utilizes their skilled observation and keen awareness of the dynamics of portraiture to pose questions on love, loss, risk, trust and belonging. Sixty poetic images possessed of affection and agency, are intermixed with poignant and highly personal prose, to create an object of beauty and an accompaniment to the trials and triumphs of a fully lived life. In this conversation, Jess Dugan discusses, among other things:Following desireBeing led by attractionLooking to pictures to learnRegulating the emotional space of portraitureEthics of carePractice as processProtecting creative spaceExpanding the gaze - beyond identityCapturing ambiguityPersonal storytelling as a model of possibilityReferenced in the episodeEvery Breath We Drew - Jess T Dugan To Survive on This Shore - Jess T Dugan, Vanessa Fabbre Strange Fire Collective - Rafael Soldi, Jess T Dugan, Hamidah Glasgow, Zora J.

Hannah Klemm, the associate curator of modern and contemporary art, curates the museum's “Currents” and “New Media Series” exhibitions. Klemm previously was the Fisher Collection Graduate Curatorial Fellow at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, where she has worked on the contemporary German art collection. She holds a doctorate from the University of Chicago, a master's degree in art history from the Courtauld Institute of Art and a bachelor's degree in art history with honors from Sarah Lawrence College. Klemm has received several fellowships and awards, including a 10-month research fellowship from the German Academic Exchange Service at Humboldt University in Berlin. About Currents 120: Jess T. Dugan -  Through February 20, 2022 St. Louis–based artist Jess T. Dugan is known for their color photographs that explore the power of identity, desire, and connection. In Currents 120: Jess T. Dugan, the museum presents a selection of 20 recent works—portraits, self-portraits, and still lifes—many of which were created specifically for this exhibition. Within a framework of queer and nonbinary experience and from an actively constructed sense of masculinity, Dugan's portraits examine intersections between individual identity and the search for intimate connection with others. About Art Along the Rivers: Through January 9, 2022 The exhibition includes a surprising range of objects that vary widely in medium, function, and the prominence of their makers. For example, it brings together Mississippian sculpture, Osage textiles, architectural drawings for iconic landmarks, musical instruments, German and Creole furniture, African American decorative arts, prize-winning paintings from the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, and contemporary artists' responses to these historic objects. While at first these works might appear to have few connections, the exhibition arranges them by theme rather than by culture or chronology to establish dialogues around the region's geography, raw materials, and pressing social issues. About Oliver Lee Jackson: Through February 20, 2022 Oliver Lee Jackson is known for creating complex and layered images in which figurative elements—or what he calls “paint people”—emerge from abstract fields of vibrant color. Jackson's practice is informed by a deep understanding of global art history—from early modern European painting to African art. Yet his works do not aim to elevate a single message, narrative, or meaning. Rather, the works serve as an open invitation to slow and close looking, encouraging viewers to stake emotional claim on the paintings and not wait for instructions on what to see.

Dugan, on display at the St. Louis Art Museum from September 17th, 2021 through February 20, 2022.  Also talked about is their career in general, and the exhibition/book To Survive on this Shore, among other topics.  Jess T.

Jess T. Dugan, independent artist, stops by to speak with Nancy about her photography and her project "To Survive on This Shore."

Photographer Jess T. Dugan is one of my favorite contemporary portrait artists, whose work explores issues of gender, sexuality, identity, and community. Jess's 2015 book Every Breath We Drew is a favorite of mine, and I was pleased to be able to discuss that book with her, as well as her recent series To Survive On This Shore, photographs and interviews with transgender and gender non-conforming people over the age of fifty. We had a great conversation about her artistic process, how she approaches making a portrait, and how her tools inform her work. For the second segment, Jess chose "golden hour" as her subject, the time just before sunset when the light is both striking and rapidly changing. (Conversation recorded May 8, 2017. Originally aired June 21, 2017.)

“Within my book I wanted there to be funny pictures, and this range to sort of tragic and then realistic. Not categorized by subject - these are dead, and this is food and this is what we wear, this is on exhibits. I wanted it to be woven and by that experience of going through all the pictures, can someone’s guard be set down because of that ride through the pictures?”
