Using the artist's close friends and trans siblings as stand-ins for biological family, Houston's images 'manifest a desire to have unconditional relationships' without losing the landscape they grew up in. The images are made up of materials fundamental to queer nightlife and include friends, family, partners, interiors, and landscapes addressing the multi-layered erasure queer communities have experienced.

J Houston was born in Kalamazoo, Michigan and graduated from Carnegie Mellon University with a focus in art and gender theory. J has received grants from Frank-Ratchye STUDIO for Creative Inquiry, Greater Pittsburgh Arts Council, and Carnegie Mellon University. Their photo work on Pittsburghs queer community was a finalist for the Duke CDS Essay Prize and Silver Eye Center for Photographys fellowship program, and their work has been shown at Houston Center for Photography, Turner Contemporary, Aviary Gallery, Amos Eno Gallery, Contact Gallery, Miller Institute of Contemporary Art, Siena Heights University, and New York Photo Festival, among others.
