504-907 is a cultural comparison of Southern Louisiana and Interior ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ. Utilizing the diptych form, I invite the viewer to engage with the diptych to decipher each location. This work also represents my MFA photography thesis show from the University of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Fairbanks.
Miles B. Jordan is a self-taught photographer, educator, University of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Master of Fine Art final year student, and New Orleans native who has experimented with digital, analog, and infrared photography.
As a photographer, he has worked in various genres, including fashion, lifestyle, editorial, conceptual, sports, portraiture, analog, landscape, cityscape, street, infrared, and photojournalism photography.
Miles uses his camera as a photographer to capture the surroundings around him. His photographs use effective colors to pull the viewer into the scene as if they were present - a feature that has become characteristic of his photographic style. Miles has been in various galleries across the United States, including The Bear Gallery at the ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Centennial Center for the Arts in Fairbanks, ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ, Decode Gallery in Tucson, Arizona, and more. His photographs have also received national attention when chosen for Kolari Vision's 2nd Annual Life in Another Light Photo Contest.
