Paul Jones (b.1967 UK. Resident in London)
Over the past seven years Paul Jones has been concerned with the intense nature of materials- how they behave, their surface qualities, potential form and the ‘right’ way to use them.
Paul graduate of the Royal College of art, poses the question ‘What If’? Thus the work grows intuitively where the making process is inseparable from the finished product.
This has led him to drawing exercises such as drawing a line on paper and repeating the process creating as he says ‘a kind of Richter scale of the mind’. This process has been used on cardboard, drawing a line on cardboard cutting it out repeating the process thus creating a 3D-cardboard landscape.
Paul’s interest in materials has led him to experiment with materials such as bubble wrap, resin, cardboard tubing, polystyrene, chip-board, popcorn etc. The list is endless in fact he will use any material that will help him create that ‘thing’ that will help as he says ‘relate to our physical world, at the same time reveal an unknown world where all materials become polymorphic and where time, space, distance, scale stretch and shrink out of shape.'
