"I suppose that's that then" Painting

'Jones' work explores the materiality of paint in relation to memory, primarily utilising cinematic source imagery of 90s romantic comedies and cult classics as a means to address the intangible nature of nostalgia through the constructs of film and painting. Impersonal and personal all at once, they allude to fragmented space whilst conjuring an internalised or other world. Her longstanding exploration of the materiality of paint in relation to memory continues in this work, harnessing aspects of surface detail as a painterly vehicle to grasp at the intangible.' Painted for Jones' solo exhibition 'Tales from the Cutting Room Floor', this work was inspired by the film Bladerunner (1982) - a longstanding source of inspiration for Jones' paintings. Merged with other memories, the painting presents the self or other-self as indignant or perhaps exuding a strength of conviction. In any case a powerful woman. In a rare choice Jones references the physical medium of film by including part of the 'letterboxing' at the bottom of the painting (black block). She utilises the contrast between it and her signature painterly marks to draw the viewer back to the materiality of the object, taking us from the subject and back to the process of painting and how she commands it as a vessel for memory.
