JP Terlizzi

JP Terlizzi is an award-winning New York City photographer whose contemporary practice explores themes of memory, relationship, and identity. His images are rooted in the personal and heavily influenced by the notion of home, legacy, and family. He is curious about how the past relates to and intersects with the present and how the present enlivens the past, shaping one’s identity.

JP’s highly acclaimed still life work is known for its distinctive use of style, pattern, texture, and color. He uses food and objects to explore familial heritage and personal stories, creating visual narratives that connect the past and present. Through his evocative use of composition and symbolism, JP captures not only the physical essence of objects but also their emotional and cultural significance creating images that resonate with personal histories and collective memories.

JP’s work is represented in the permanent collections of The Royal Caribbean Group, Fort Wayne Museum of Art, Candela Gallery Acquisitions, The Center for Fine Art Photography, in addition to private collections across the US, Canada, and internationally.
