Jazz is an East Midlands based artist and graduate of Nottingham Trent University. His practice is an exploration, reflection and response primarily to issues surrounding identity politics of queerness and representation, race, heritage and culture from a mixed poc perspective living in Britain today.
Selected by Backlit Gallery, Jazz developed his practice on a graduate artist residency from 2019 to 2020. In 2019 he was commissioned by Broadway Gallery for his ‘Pride’ series with his first solo show exploring queer representation in gallery spaces.
Glenn has won awards including the Genesis Imaging Portfolio Award and the New Art Exchange Central Gallery Exhibition Award and was selected to feature his 'Heist' series at FreeRange (2019). Jazz has been exhibited in galleries including: The New Art Exchange Nottingham, Backlit Gallery, The Truman Gallery London, Broadway Gallery Nottingham, OFF Bratislava Slovakia, The Nottingham Contemporary, Photo Parlour Nottingham and Rough Trade Nottingham.
