Artist statement
Jacqui Jones is a graduate artist whose work responds to environmental issues. She creates art objects and installations that consider sustainability in ways that are powerful and thought provoking. She is interested in pushing the boundaries of unusual materials to raise awareness of our relationship with the natural world.
