Jacolby Satterwhite

Bio

Jacolby Satterwhite is an American contemporary artist who works with video, performance, 3D animation, fibers, and drawing and printmaking, currently based in New York City. His work has been shown globally in major institutions, shows, and galleries. He recently worked with Solange, who created a visual album to accompany her new record, When I Get Home, enlisting Satterwhite to serve as one of the project’s contributing directors. In October of 2019, in collaboration with musician Nick Weiss, he will release Love Will Find A Way Home, a full-length double LP and book under the moniker of PAT, which will coincide with his solo exhibition, “You’re At Home,” at NYC’s Pioneer Works. The album takes its name from Satterwhite’s mother Patricia, who suffered from schizophrenia and died in 2016. She left behind hundreds of acapella recordings on cassette tapes, as well as abstract drawings of home goods, such as wet wipes, sugar cubes, and toothbrushes. Incorporating her recordings into their work, Satterwhite and Weiss remixed and manipulated Patricia’s voice into propulsive, electronic dance tracks featuring a range of other collaborators.
