Who: Jason Edward Tucker, 21
Gallery sales assistant, Morton Fine Art
What he does: The mission of Morton’s Fine Art (MFA) is to provide access to museum-quality contemporary art through a combination of innovative exhibitions and a new generation of art services. My job includes graphic design, sales, and social media coverage for the gallery. I also work as a photographer at many of the openings we have throughout the year.
Describe your work style: A mesh of early-1900s male fashion (think Adventures of Tintin) and a modern steampunk aesthetic. I’ve also got a fixation with brooches, small women’s watches, and other shiny trinkets, so I guess there’s a bit of a grandmotherly vibe in there, too. I tend to mix and match my casual wear with my dress wear for clean everyday looks. Luckily I have no dress code in my work environment, allowing for full freedom of wardrobe regardless of the occasion.
