StatementThe foundation of Gillies Jones' work is process - crafting glass well. Their most recent work explores the vessel as a metaphorical and literal container and represents their continuing creative and technical collaboration. They draw influence from contemporary philosophers and academics who identify a disconnection with the history of common artefacts in daily use as a telling parable for alienation from feelings of wonder, appreciation and concern. Their vessels are grounded in observations of universal shapes and familiar patterns of the natural world.
