Artist Statement Biography

Jamil Fatti is a Gambian-American artist whose work traces impermanence and memory, exploring how cycles of time, transition, and loss shape our search for meaning. He holds a Master of Fine Arts from the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) and dual Bachelor's degrees in Landscape Architecture and City & Regional Planning from Cornell University. Working primarily in photography, Fatti investigates the unstable relationship between impermanence, memory, and meaning. Across recent bodies of work, his photographs move between outward attention and interior rupture, looking closely at the visible world while tracing the pauses, uncertainties, and emotional weather that shape a life from within. His work has been exhibited internationally and across the United States, in venues such as the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center, Microscope Gallery in New York, Filter Space in Chicago, Trastienda Machete Galeria in Mexico City, and Millepiani Gallery in Rome. It is also held in public and private collections, including the RISD Museum, and has been featured in publications such as The New York Times, Atlanta Center for Photography’s New South, and Float Magazine.
