Olivia Jones

Olivia Jones (b. London, 1988) considers how we perceive and comprehend structures within our environment through drawing, print and sculpture. By altering structural realities to conjure up idiosyncratic spaces, she articulates a connection between real and imagined landscapes.

Graduating in BA (Hons) Fine Art at Falmouth University in 2013, Olivia is a current studio holder at Spike Island and a member of Spike Print Studios. Her most recent exhibitions include Contemporary British Drawing, Xi’an Academy of Fine Arts, China and You Move Me, Antlers Gallery, Create Centre, Bristol.
