G e o r g i a J o n e s is an Artist from South Wales currently living in London. She studied Fine Art at Kingston University, London and graduated in 2011 receiving a First Class Degree. Her work is based on colour and its relationship to form in painting. The idea of the ‘frame’ is used to explore this relationship with colour and form in both a two and three-‐dimensional context, experimenting with the boundaries that exist between painting, sculpture and design. Geometric shapes are used to initiate a story between organic forms and colour. Painting and sculpture work as a pair in the work, resulting in paintings bordering on sculpture and sculpture bordering on painting. Georgia is currently working as an ‘Artist in Residence’ in a Primary School, leading workshops for children aged 3-‐11.
‘I started as a painter and never stopped making paintings. And still, part of what interests me is a pictorial way of looking at things. Viewing through pictures is part of our experience of the world, an experience which happens to often be associated with art. ‘ J e s s i c a S t o c k h o l d e r
