On-Going Project
LAST WILDEST PLACE: The Purús/Manu region is one of the most isolated places in the Amazon, where threatened but still intact ecosystems provide for remote indigenous communities as well as water, oxygen, climate stability, and biological diversity for us all.
On-going Project
WHAT IS FOUND THERE: A process-based project that recontextualizes 20 years of my personal and photojournalistic photography, challenging the dominant perspectives I worked in, asking how it might be deconstructed and reimagined to vitalize new ways of knowing an infinitely diverse yet inextricably connected world.
Jason Houston’s photography, filmmaking, and art celebrates the diversity of human experience through stories exploring how we live on the planet and with each other. Jason has worked in over 30 countries making photojournalism, personal documentary, multimedia art, and short films. His work has been recognized, published, exhibited, premiered, and presented online, in print, and at venues worldwide for over 20 years.
