statement

Jacob Cartwright & Nick Jordan have been collaborating since 2004. Their work seeks out the unusual, poetic or absurd interrelations between the natural world and our own multifaceted cultural histories.

Through collaboration, Cartwright & Jordan combine a range of cultural and natural themes, illuminating the peculiarities and contrasts with our everyday realities. They recently published Alien Invaders (Book Works), which takes the form of a guidebook to non-native invasive species found in Britain, and completed a trilogy of films centered on the writings of 19th century artist, ornithologist and frontiersman John James Audubon, filmed along the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. Between 2007 & 2008 Cartwright & Jordan were artist research fellows at The Manchester Museum, with subjects ranging from the extinct North American passenger pigeon to the emblematic native British oak tree.
