The work in the Crossroads exhibition responds to an interest in how ideas can converge, intersect and separate. People, place, material and process strongly influence the work Nic Jackson makes. Curiosity drives the question, “What can happen when all of these overlap?” He uses wood, photography and painting to look inward at his own thoughts, anxieties and struggles, as well as to look outward at his physical environment.

Nic Jackson is the wood studio manager at the NC State Crafts Center.

The exhibition runs through Nov. 2, 2023.
