Olivia Jones

Olivia Jones is an emerging artist based in Perth, Western Australia.

Delving into the realm of the psyche and subconscious, my work explores emotional states through the sensual medium of oil paint. I am interested in the concept of the Slow Movement, the idea to resist the ‘speed’ and demand of society through deliberately enjoying the moment. This is utilised through a process-based methodology. By allowing my subconscious to direct the painting, rather than working towards an intended outcome, a process-based methodology enables spontaneous and intuitive actions to develop the artworks
