About The Artist
Jared Ragland (MFA, Tulane University) is a fine art and documentary photographer and former White House photo editor. His collaborative, socially conscious visual practice combines a range of photographic tactics with social science, historical, and literary research methodologies to critically confront issues of identity, marginalization, and the history of place. He currently serves on the faculty at the University of Mississippi as Instructional Assistant Professor in the Department of Art and Art History and affiliate faculty at the Center for the Study of Southern Culture.

What Has Been Will Be Again has led Jared Ragland across more than 35,000 miles and into each of Alabama’s 67 counties to trace routes connected to brutal colonial legacies. By combining a Southern Gothic visual sensibility with narrative captions, the photographs strategically focus on the importance of place, the passage of time, and the visual-political dimensions of remembrance.
