I am an artist based in South Wales. My work addresses a range of concerns which are primarily political and often related to the history of colonialism and its contemporary legacies.

Branwen Jones is an artist based in South Wales. Her current practice explores the material fabric of everyday life as a site of politics. She is interested in how histories and politics are embedded within materials and objects. These might be histories of origin, production and transformation, trade and circulation, distant and recent commercial or personal use, and future histories of disposal or pollution. She explores how making work using collected objects and surfaces of everyday life entails an engagement with material politics. She uses processes such as casting, and experimenting with found materials, while also exploring surface, texture, history and politics through drawing, printmaking, animation and video.
