Credentials
- Works on commission
Working in quick-drying paint and graphite, Colleen Surprise Jones creates spontaneous, narrative-driven works defined by immersive exploration and open-ended transformation. Her process often incorporates her background in dance, at times using her feet to apply materials. Jones’s recent MFA from Paris College of Art, with a focus on contemporary drawing, was followed by an internship at Galerie Joseph Tang near Paris. Themes of spirituality, eternity, and mental health are present throughout her practice, with the visceral responses her work elicits integral to its ultimate realization.
