Jamie Ho is an interdisciplinary artist who is currently based in Tallahassee, Florida. Her art practice engages with GIFs, photography, and installation to investigate the long-term impact of assimilation and cultural bereavement through references of ancestral Chinese traditions and artifacts. Her work troubles the history of public spectacle and display of Asian American women, using performance and lighting studio to challenge societal expectations of gender roles and norms. She has been included in the 2023 Silver List, was a Critical Mass Finalist and was awarded the 40th Center Annual Beth Block Honorarium by Houston Center for Photography.

Throughout the fall and spring semesters, the Artists Now! Guest Lecture Series welcomes a diverse group of nationally and internationally recognized artists working across traditional, hybrid and emergent disciplines. Join us to explore and expand boundaries of creative visual practices alongside others with an interest in contemporary visual art.
