Jesse Morgan Barnett is a Dallas based Intermedia artist working with various “photographic” media,

which includes, but is not limited to, photography.

Whether manifested as photographs of interstate barrier scrapings, video loops of people hugging,

audio files of stomach acid, punching bags filled with baby powder, or installations of zip lock bags

cast in plaster, Barnett’s work is sampled, derived, and distanced from pre-existing things,

reconstituted as recorded reproductions.

“I’m not necessarily working with the thing itself, directly. I’m working with a version of the

aftermath.”

Barnett received his Masters of Fine Arts degree with an Intermedia concentration from the

University of Texas at Arlington in 2011.
