Katherine Jones – Pleated Petal

Katherine Jones brings together disparate narratives in hyper-real or folkloric spaces. Perceptions of safety and danger are often presented using archetypal motifs such as a house, flower, sun or tree. She combines traditional and experimental printmaking techniques exemplified by the humble card she uses for her collagraph plates. Her ideas are often exchanged between watercolours, oil painting and printmaking, here a luminous magic is manifested with her use of colour and painterly marks.
