Monoprint 80X100Cm On 300G Cotton Arches, 2019 Edition of Dimensions (WxH): 80 x 98cm
Raised in Scotland Sarah Knill-Jones studied at the Glasgow School of Art and obtained her MA from UAL. Her practice incorporates drawing, painting, print making, performance and collaborative experiments.
Knill-Jones’ work is a visceral response to the fragile balance of contradictory forces which make us human. Drawing from the body is her starting point, from which she teases out the line to make gestural paintings and artworks to include performative drawing. Having moved countries often, the imposed relocations have contributed to a desire to reinforce interconnection and the interdependence of all living beings.
She frequently draws inspiration from literature such as Cortazar’s ‘Hopscotch’ for the Rayuela monoprints, shown here for the first time in the UK. This was also the inspiration for an ephemeral drawing performance at Julio Gallery, Paris in March this year.
Knill-Jones has exhibited worldwide, notably at the Museum of Modern Art and the Centre for Contemporary Art in Baku, Gallery Julio, Tectum Anima and the Galerie des Photographes Paris also at the Royal Scottish Academy and Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize.
Her work can be found in the collections of the V & A, the University of Northampton, MoMa Baku and private collections around the world.
