Salvage: The title alludes to the reused and recycled content of Jackie Nickerson's 2020 series of studio portraits that explore the homogeneity of portraiture - balance, similarity, proportions, size - that characterise the genre. With her photographic examination of old masters and modern paintings, Nickerson (* 1960) illuminates the way in which artists over centuries interpret the observed world in their own way by using common visual techniques and means of expression in different media.
