Brooke White

bio

White’s artistic explorations are centered around the convergence of place, memory, and time. Using various photographic techniques, such as experimental, documentary, portraiture, and video, she delves into topics related to family and loss, identity and nature, motherhood, and creative expression. White’s aim is to examine how the landscape can serve as both a personal and communal environment, reflecting the dynamic interplay between our internal and external experiences as they shape our sense of self and connection to the world. Her latest projects delve into the impact of climate-related weather events on rising water levels in regions such as the Gulf South, the Caribbean, and the Maritimes.

White’s work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, most notably at the Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, CA, Georgia Museum of Art, Athens, GA, Chrysler Museum of Art, Norfolk, VA, Ogden Museum of Southern Art, New Orleans, LA, Mississippi Museum of Art, Jackson, MS, and the Mamia Bretesche Gallery, Arles & Paris, France. She has been a Senior Fulbright Scholar in Bangalore, India and her work has been published in Give and Take: Motherhood and the Creative Process, Aint Bad Magazine, Southern Cultures UNC Press, Reckonings and Reconstructions: Southern Photographs from the Do Good Collection, and the Oxford American.  She is the recipient of the National Council of Arts Administrators Fellowship, Sarah Isom Fellowship, Sarah Isom Center for Women’s and Gender Studies, University of Mississippi and has been an artist in residence at the Penland School of Crafts, Penland, NC, and SlowE in Zebulon, GA.
