JONES KEYWORTH
Jones Keyworth was born in London in 1980, but spent her childhood in the Sussex countryside and graduated from Chichester University in 2003. Established as a freelance artist, writer and theatre designer across Sussex, she moved back to London in 2004, collaborating with galleries as well as theatres such as The Old Vic and National Theatre.
Often painted on panels of mahogany cut from old doors, these are small and heavy pieces, painted with luminous jewel-like tones. Reminiscent of icons or illuminated manuscripts, Jones Keyworth’s oils evoke strange and dark fables, exploring themes of memory and per ception . Beautiful yet claustrophobic, the landscapes create a sense of unease with patterns of people and trees.
