Born in a suburb of D.C. and raised in the small town of Poolesville, Maryland, Jason Ferguson moved to Baltimore to study art at Towson University in 1997 and continued his studies at the University of Delaware, receiving his MFA in 2006. Ferguson was hired immediately after acquiring his master’s degree to teach sculpture for the Pennsylvania State University. Jason currently resides in Moscow, ID where he has been an Assistant Professor in the Department of Art & Design at the University of Idaho for nearly three years. Ferguson’s psychologically charged installations have been said to raise issues of artistic control, consciousness, and mortality. He has exhibited his work internationally including group exhibitions in Kolderveen, Berlin, New York City, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Kansas City. Ferguson’s work has been on display in one-person exhibitions at the International Museum of Surgical Science and Ebers B9 in Chicago, at the Delaware Center for the Contemporary Arts in Wilmington, and recently at the Center for Arts and History in Lewiston; among other venues.
