Jacob Church

MFA ’25 Photography

Strange Fires seeks to pose questions about the complicated relationship between community and individuals and how our built environment serves as a sort of language, communicating at once a community’s values, desires, and disenfranchisement.



Jacob Church is a photographer born in Bowling Green, Ohio. Church’s images are exposed and kept in the dark for sometime, creating space between the fiction of the occurrence as it lives in his memory and the fact of the latent image. His work has been exhibited at Panopticon gallery in Boston, MA and at La Grange in Vers Pont du Gard, France. His photographs have been featured in Pearl Press, Oranbeg Press, Lenscratch, and Fotofilmic.
