Alice Jones is an up and coming artist currently studying Fine Art at Newcastle University, having completed her foundation degree at Bristol School of Art. She recently revisited her hometown in Scotland to further her art career in the country's culture capital. Whilst there Alice participated in two exhibitions, 'Domestic Bliss' and 'Sour Grapes', at AXO, Edinburgh, sister gallery to Axolotl on Dundas St. presenting her work to the public and participating in the City's lively Arts scene.

 

Alice's inspiration comes from the processes of Art-making itself, through the use of different materials and by the way in which these realms interact. Consequently much of her work leans more towards the abstract and her subjects are often more obscure than mainstream. Working mainly in oils and acrylics Alice has recently explored geology and human biology, exploring the relationship between the two, and developing this by considering our human behavior and how we interact with nature and changing environments.
