Jo Cope is a UK based artist, lecturer and alumni of the London Collage of Fashion where she studied her Masters in Fashion Artefacts.
Crossing the boundaries of Fashion, Art, Craft and Performance Jo's unique practice focused on the foot and shoe draws inspiration from universal human experiences, psychology, philosophy and social trends.
For over a decade her work has been represented at a diverse range of prestigious events worldwide; including the Venice Biennale fringe festival 2021, London Craft Week 2020, Fashion Matters at Buckingham Palace 2018 and Material Movement Gala at Sadler's Wells Theatre 2017. Her footwear artefacts have been exhibited internationally at top museums including: The Budapest Museum of Art, State Museum Russia and Decorative Arts Museum Paris.
Jo classes her work as focused on 'The Human Side of Fashion'
In her most recent project and role as curator of the Shoes Have Names exhibition, she collaborated with Shelter- the UK homeless Charity to raise awareness for the current housing emergency. She brought together 10 shoe designers/artists, of which 8 were amazingly talented females, with 10 individuals who had survived homelessness and who we helped by Shelter; to tell their stories.
