Volk Gallery is proud to present the work of Amy Jones. Each Volk artist is given a size limit and budget and left to their own devices. With this brief, Jones has produced 50 miniature, handmade quilts utulising offcuts from previous works. When placed together, the quilts become a complete story; fragments made for loved ones are restitched and recontextualised. Small moments of care and support are passed to new friends.
Artist's Statement
Amy Jones is an Artist and Educator based in Dundee, Scotland.
Drawing is the foundation of her practice, expanding into printmaking, collaboration, and textiles.
Through these materials and actions she considers the notion of sturdy love, where everyday encounters, instinct and intuition are used as material to shape ideas from.
Previous work include; Making, Big Family Press, South London Gallery (2020) and Translations (Life Space, Dundee Print Collective & WCAIR, 2020) Commission with Dundee Print Collective for Arbroath 2020+1 (2021).
