Quinn Jacobson is an artist, author, and scholar working where creativity meets the fact of mortality.  His practice draws from art, philosophy, psychology, anthropology, theology and history, not to stack disciplines but to probe a single stubborn question:  how do humans live with the knowledge that everything they love will one day disappear?  Through painting, historical photographic processes, and writing, he examines the subtle strategies--both deliberate and unconscious--that people use to soften, divert, or manage the anxiety that comes with being temporary.
He has written and published nine books including: Glass Bones:  Art Mortality and the Human Mind (2026) (the subject of this podcast); In the Shadow of Sun Mountain: The Psychology of Othering and the Origins of Evil (2026); Rupture: The Creative Response to Death Anxiety (Fall 2026); Chemical Pictures (2020) and others.
Quinn also produces an ongoing video series: The Creative Mind & Mortality:  Artists & Anxiety on his YouTube channel.  The project examines how creatives metabolize their existential struggles through making, in contrast to what Otto Rank called the artiste manque--those who feel the same pressure of existence but lack a generative outlet.
