Gordon Jackson
Visions of an Undiscovered Self
The images are located in the tradition of self-portraiture and my aim is to explore aspects of the human condition alongside recognising my emotional journey in recovery from addiction. To some degree this body of work deals with raw emotions, which are difficult to verbalise. Once the crux has been removed I'm left with all the unhealed wounds and raw emotions on which I used to self-medicate. Now there is nothing to ease the pain and the rollercoaster journey of self-discovery has begun. Over years of self-abuse the many masks have covered my true personality. The time has come to peel away the guises and find out who I really am.
