Jeffrey Jin (b. 2003) is a queer, Chinese American photographer born and raised in the suburbs of Houston within the confines of a pious Chinese church community. Since taking their first "Are You Gay?" quiz at age twelve, religious faith has been supplanted with a devout interest in both analog and digital mediums as tools to strengthen identity and preserve what’s most familiar: their family and queer friends of color. In doing so, their work unveils narratives surrounding upbringing, corporeality, and a deep affection for the physical and digital landscapes they inhabit—from Texas' winding roads to the Internet’s deep caverns.
Their images have been featured in publications including Dazed, Far-NEAR, and Nowness, and have been exhibited across Houston, New York City, and Shanghai. They are an alumnus of the Eddie Adams Workshop, a member of Diversify Photo, and currently in their final undergraduate year pursuing Asian American Studies and Sociology at the University of Texas at Austin.
They are currently based between Houston and Austin, available for commissions and assignments through email at hi@jeffreyjin.photo
