About the Photographer

Jackuliaková, Dominika

Slovakian, b. 1989

Created while she was in Chicago on a residency at Latitude in 2016, Lom by Dominika Jackuliakova is a meditation on stone and its relationship to time and human history. Photographed in her home region in Slovakia, the site of many stone quarries, and Vienna where she investigates stone as a material that communicates history, Jackuliakova is interested in the contrast between stone and the more temporary nature of other materials. Jackuliakova is a Fulbright Scholar working at Columbia College Chicago in 2019/2020.
