ARTIST INFO
About
Lucia Jones is a painter based in Wales. Since graduating from Falmouth University in 2014, she has exhibited throughout the UK in solo and group exhibitions including BEEP Painting Prize 2018. Her work is held in private collections in the UK, USA, Austria and Hong Kong.
Lucia’s work explores the depiction of self and memory through the constructs of paint and film. Her most recent paintings primarily utilise cinematic source imagery from obscure 50s and 60s b-movies as a means to address the intangible nature of memory and the shifting impressions of lived moments. Impersonal and personal all at once, they allude to fragmented space whilst conjuring an internalised or other world; slivers of the imagined and real sit on the surface of the canvas serving as artefacts of the seen and the experienced.
