Artist Statement

Jones was Born and grew up in County Tyrone Northern Ireland, and made her home in South Wales in 1998.

Jones is a mixed media Artist, working with organic and found materials, photography and moving image. Drawing connections between landscape and human interaction using the natural environment and local community for inspiration Jones has developed a strong practice in her local area over the last number of years, and has a keen interest in participatory practice, with a view to involving the public  in future site specific workshops and community lead projects. The majority of her work has been based in the grounds of Jersey Park Briton Ferry and she has come to see it as an extension of her studio based practice. Due to the ephemeral nature of the work it is often experienced by the audience as a live performance or presented via suites of photography, film and text. A particular area of interest and a driving force behind her work, is the growing disconnect between human beings and the natural world, Jones’ investigation into how land art and socially engaged practice may be of use as a tool to help us connect/reconnect with both the community and the outdoor environment.
