Katherine Jones RA, Time Stretched by Wanting, 2020
Collagraph and block-print, 103 x 76cm, edition of 25
Katherine Jones’ practice encompass a wide range of techniques that she combines to produce her distinctive limited edition and unique prints. Her works are characterised by a particular luminosity whether it be generated by sunlight hitting water or the artificial glow from within a glasshouse.
Throughout her practice, Katherine has been interested in structures that historically provide shelter - but may be more fragile than first assumed. Much of her subject matter is inspired by her immediate surroundings including Brockwell Park in Brixton and the architecture of her neighbourhood in Tulse Hill, as well as time spent as artist in residence at Eton College Drawing Schools in 2014.
This large-scale limited edition print is part of the ‘We Grew the Long Bones’ series which took inspiration from historical and mythical female characters in folklore and literature. In this complex composition, Katherine uses a monochromatic palette to create drama. A folded figure is seen crouching within the confines of the central structure which, in the artist’s words, comments on ‘the increasingly fragmented way in which a woman’s work and personal life is sub-divided to fit an unrealistic ideal’.
Katherine graduated from Camberwell College of Art in 2003. She has exhibited widely both in the UK and internationally including a solo exhibition at Rabley Gallery in 2021 and more recently in ‘Hockney to Himid: 60 Years of British Printmaking’ at Pallant House Gallery, Chichester . She has been the recipient of numerous awards including the London Original Print Fair Prize in 2014. Two solo exhibitions both tilted ‘We Grew the Long Bones’, were presented by Oliver Projects in 2020 in Eton and London. Her work is held in public collections including the V&A Museum, London, Guangdong Museum, China, and Boston Athenaeum, USA. Katherine was elected a Royal Academician in May 2022. She lives and works in south east London.
