Alison Jackson est née le 15 Mai 1960 à Southsea, Hampshire. Elle étudie la photographie au Fine Art Photography. The Royal College of Art à Londres et la sculpture au Fine Art Sculpture Chelsea College of Art, à Londres. Elle vit et travaille à Londres.
Au cours de l'année 2000, le travail d'Alison Jackson a fait son entrée dans le monde de l'art et le commerce des galeries.
Sa spécialité ? Traquer les stars à leur insu. C'est ainsi qu'elle à pû photographier Bill Gates en train de danser en écoutant son iPod, Georges Bush en train de s'étouffer avec un bretzel ou encore la Reine d'Angleterre sur le trône, Mick Jagger en flagrant délit de repassage ! Paparazzi ? A moins que...
A moins que ce ne soit que des sosies ! En effet, Alison Jackson n'est pas paparazzi mais une photographe qui met en scène les sosies de stars dans des situations parfois délicates. " La ressemblance devient réalité et le fantasme empiète sur le possible. L'incrédulité du spectateur est suspendue. J'essaie de souligner le lien psychologique entre ce que nous voyons et ce que nous imaginons. Il est indissociable de notre besoin de regarder (notre voyeurisme) et de notre besoin de croire. "
Les photos sont (faussement) volées, tellement incroyables qu'elles en deviennent vraies
Les informations fournies dans la section « Synopsis » peuvent faire référence à une autre édition de ce titre.
Alison Jackson's staged realism toys with our voyeuristic and fame-fueled fantasies. Her mockumentary approach uses look-alikes to create elaborate imaginary scenes of famous people. Cheeky and often shocking, her fabulously fake scenarios question the levels of reality present in our media-saturated existences. Along the way, she challenges us to question how much of what we know (or think we know) about well-known figures can actually be true. Could it all really be a deluded projection of our own mundane lives? Is loneliness and disconnection at the heart of wanting to come close to our famous "friends?" Why are we so curious about people we'll probably never meet-whose whole existence might just be a carefully constructed performance?
