KELLY JAYNE JONES

 Kelly Jayne Jones is a Manchester based artist making work that combines performance, installation and sound. She is mostly self taught and began working in DIY experimental noise music and her practice has expanded to include dance, gesture, sonic drawings, stone sculpture and film scores.

She is interested in creating a multi-sensory experience that creates possible conditions for communication and exchange. Creating contemporary zones bordering quantum fictions, where communion may have the potential to explore our inner dimensions. She is currently exploring animist ideas around the breath and spirit of mountains and rivers and how we can reconnect with our planet by means of ancient and modern rituals. Her work traverses the emotions of desire and anxiety, the comfortable and uncomfortable edges of our inner spaces and social co-existence. She is interested in presence and performance as a site for potential transformation; interpersonally and communally.

KJJ has collaborations with Matana Roberts, Hannah Ellul (White Death), Greta Buitkute (Clout then Grappling) and Dan Valentine from Rainer Veil and Haris Epaminonda. She was one half of the group part wild horses mane on both sides, which disbanded in 2016. She has performed across Europe in DIY venues and has been commissioned for works with projects at dOCUMENTA13, Tate Modern, ICA London and CCA Glasgow, Le Plateau Paris, Borealis Festival & Kunsthalle Bergen Norway, Tectonics contemporary music festival, Hangar Bicocca gallery Milan and the Huddersfield contemporary music festival (hcmf//) and Sheffield Site Gallery. Recently she had a collaborative work with Haris Epaminonda, Chimera, shown at 58th Venice Biennale 2019, Haris won the Silver Lion for best young participant for this film.

IN ATOMS

In Atoms (Adam Cooper) makes stuff from the dust that gathers in the corners of rooms; the crumbs of once and still living bodies.
Using found super 8 footage, combined with half destroyed tape loops, he creates work that is at once blissful and unnerving. In all these scratched films and hissed tapes there is a sadness of of objects and moments passed. Every piece is a sequence of failed attempts. In Atoms is trying to make you cry.

The show will take place in the living room at 9 Croxteth Road, Liverpool's former Brazilian consulate . All welcome including children, BYOB, donation entry. Please feel free to invite any interested friends - due to this performance taking place in our house we're keeping the event itself private.
