The work of Carol Jackson exists in a world where ideological fervor and the quest for power have become empty exercises. Glory is a memory that seeks resuscitation through icons of triumph; trophies, monuments and vernacular signage. Her work relies on the visual and oral rhetoric of memorials but any subsequent narratives usually accompanied by the use of nostalgia are disabled to serve the larger metaphor of the rapturous decline of the west. Here is a sumptuous ghost town where loss permanently dwells.
