Notes on Building a Bow
“It’s impossible to say a thing exactly the way it was, because what you say can never be exact, you always have to leave something out, there are too many parts, sides, cross currents, nuances, too many gestures, which could mean this or that, too many shapes which can never fully be described, too many flavours in the air or on the tongue, half-colours, too many." — Margaret Atwood
Jessica Williams (1986) is an American artist living in Oslo, Norway. She primarily works with photography, writing, and conceptual art—where the medium comes after the idea (not vice versa). In 2008 she received her BFA from the Cooper Union in NYC and in 2011 she attended the Oslo Academy of Fine Art. Most recently, she both runs the Self-Publishing Workshop at the Art Academy and co-runs the small artist publisher NSEW (North, South, East, West).
