Jura

Jura

It all started in childhood for Jura aka Brian Joyce. Jura had a keen artistic talent at the age of two, in early adulthood they began a course in technical illustration, involving a study of the Early Renaissance.  Since Jura has developed their artistic practice since then though not without is ups and downs. They have also studied photography, psychology and the French language, and now, after twenty years of artistic production, have a body of large paintings and drawings; figurative works for the most part.

About Work

Jura always felt that their work reflects the alienation of the individual in the industrialised world. In the Covid-19 context, alienation is distorted out of all recognition. This becomes the paradox of the shared isolation, and the communal solitary confinement.
