A large-scale mixed-media collage that brings together archival imagery, popular culture references, and painterly gesture into a richly layered composition. Through deliberate fragmentation, bold colour fields, and expressive drips, the work explores visual overload, cultural memory, and the shifting boundary between the iconic and the everyday.
JOOLS ART
Jools is a contemporary mixed-media collage artist inspired by Robert Rauschenberg, Rosalie Gascoigne, and Richard Prince. Working with reclaimed panels and reused frames, she combines archival imagery, pop references, and gestural paint to explore appropriation, memory, and the shifting value of images over time.
The Collection – Moments on the Wall
A large mixed-media abstract work composed of layered fragments, muted earth tones, and expressive vertical drips, unified within an ornate gilded frame. The surface reveals traces of figures, landscapes, and symbols partially obscured by paint, evoking themes of erosion, memory, and the quiet tension between concealment and revelation.
A diptych collage composed of found imagery and torn paper, juxtaposing domestic interiors, idealised bodies, and obsolete technologies. Through irony and visual disruption, the work reflects on surveillance, gendered roles, and modernity’s promise of progress, revealing an undercurrent of vulnerability and unease beneath polished post-war optimism.
A layered black-and-white collage interspersed with muted colour, combining classical sculpture, street scenes, archival photographs, and contemporary figures. Through repetition, fragmentation, and subtle painterly intervention, the work reflects on memory, time, and the persistence of human gestures across shifting social and cultural landscapes
This is one moment within a continuing practice.
