Season of Unreason
Locust Jones creates thought-provoking compositions about the state of the world, embracing current social commentary and political issues. “We live in unreasonable times. A time of extremes, everything is complicated and feels difficult, much is at stake. There is a faction of people across the world who wish to retreat back to a time that suits them, a mythical time they locate somewhere in the 1950s… The difficulties we face do not suit them. In this exhibition, I am depicting these difficult things.” – Locust Jones, 2016
