Katherine Jones RA, A High Pitch (Dark), 2018
Collagraph and block-print, 85 × 74cm, edition of 25
Katherine Jones’ practice encompass a wide range of techniques that she combines to produce her distinctive limited edition and unique prints. Her works are characterised by a particular luminosity whether it be generated by sunlight hitting water or the artificial glow from within a glasshouse.
Throughout her practice, Katherine has been interested in structures that historically provide shelter - but may be more fragile than first assumed. Much of her subject matter is inspired by her immediate surroundings including, in this case, Crystal Palace Park, as well as time spent in the Wiltshire countryside.
This large-scale unframed limited edition print is one of a pair of vividly coloured works titled ‘A High Pitch’. Featuring the light-filled glasshouse or barn-like structure which often appears in Katherine’s imagery, the composition is rich in tonal and surface contrast, achieved through the artist’s combining of different printmaking mediums. The dark khaki and fuchsia palette borrows colours from the natural world and heightens them, giving the image a surreal quality. Each print is signed, titled and numbered on the front.
Katherine graduated from Camberwell College of Art in 2003. She has exhibited widely both in the UK and internationally including a solo exhibition at Rabley Gallery in 2021 and more recently in ‘Hockney to Himid: 60 Years of British Printmaking’ at Pallant House Gallery, Chichester . She has been the recipient of numerous awards including the London Original Print Fair Prize in 2014. Two solo exhibitions both tilted ‘We Grew the Long Bones’, were presented by Oliver Projects in 2020 in Eton and London. Her work is held in public collections including the V&A Museum, London, Guangdong Museum, China, and Boston Athenaeum, USA. Katherine was elected a Royal Academician in May 2022. She lives and works in south east London.
