PORTFOLIO - Jessica Auer, Re-creational Spaces
Popular sites and tourism fascinate Jessica Auer. She has produced a series of photographic works that were shot in North and South America in which landscapes and architecture have been preserved, renovated, altered, or built from scratch for the benefit of tourism.
Through novel perspectives and intriguing details, she invites viewers to appreciate these sites while understanding the importance of their history, cultural authenticity, and role in collective memory. Through her works, Auer offers an opportunity to reflect on and participate in the use of these sites.
