Jayne works primarily in fresh oak to explore its sculptural and aesthetic possibilities. Preferring irregularity and anomaly, Jayne works dialogically with the wood, anticipating the way in which it will change shape as it dries naturally. Once dry, Jayne carves, bleaches, stains, burns, oils and waxes. Working between Cornwall and Brittany, Jayne also creates distinctive functional vessels and platters in seasoned woods. Her wood is sourced locally and sustainably; rooted in time and place.

Focus:
Sculptural and functional forms
Stockists:
  • Messums Wiltshire
  • Gallery57
  • Flux

Elements: wood metal

10 October - 28 November

The last of four shows at Gallery57 this year to have an Elemental theme. The materials - wood and metal - express opposing qualities of strength, weight, solidity, substance in some work and, in others, delicacy, suppleness, fragility and lightness which creates an interesting mix.
