Jill Townsley is based in London
My work is often large in scale, installation or temporary, though the physical action applied to it's construction is generally excruciatingly repetitive. I am interested in the subjective results of repetitive action, such as ‘failure', ‘temporality', ‘erasure' and 'authorship'. Recent work has utilised time-laps animation or video, in the quest to reveal the repetition of process through time.
