Jessa Fairbrother is based in Sheffield, Yorkshire
Fairbrother is concerned with the exploration of identity, and the relationship between past and present. While at first glance her work may appear at times to draw on a romanticised nostalgia, the sense of ambivalence suggests a complex relationship between the individual and memory.
