THE NEON COLLECTION




LIGHT + UNITY
Spray paint, acrylic paint and ink on canvas. 100 x 70cm
The Neon Collection is an experiment of layered graffitied and tagged backgrounds juxtaposed with illuminated female figures and vehicles. Drawing upon her background in fashion, Jess wanted to play with clothing silhouettes and imagine how fabrics would react to light. Here, the exploration of light and vibrant colour through paint was the main objection. Coloured and neon lighting at night transform the environment into a different place, magical, mysterious and sometimes eerie. Jess’ work is a homage to the places that you are often warned not to go but are just too tempting the resist.

With this piece Jess wanted to have fun and take an image from childhood and turn it on it's head with a hint of dark comedy. The thought of an ice cream van, a vehicle that brings so much joy as soon as you hear it's jangling tune, being clamped may sum up the rather cruel times that some of us are dealing with...or maybe the traffic warden was just a huge 99 fan?
