Thomas Jackson in his Emergent Behavior series, photographs airborne swarms of common objects like post-it notes, cheese balls, and plates inspired by self-organized ‘emergent’ systems in nature as termite mounds, schooling fish and flocking birds.
By constructing the pieces from unexpected materials and placing them in environments where they seem least to belong, I aim to tweak the margins of our visual vocabulary, and to invite fresh interpretations of everyday things.








Mesmerizing and whimsical!
Amazing. Probably one of the best uses for those horrid plastic cups I’ve ever seen. I remember many summer camps and/or church picnics drinking rancid generic kool aid out of those things.
You come up with amazing collections of art, I love the groupings in each photo and in the post, very inspirational
oh, love the green plant! Looks like it’s fed up with the city, and in anger trying to fly away. Very inspiring work!
