Through observation Annie Jones’ work investigates the relationship between degeneration, deterioration and the sustainability of growth through experimentation with the inherent qualities of ceramic materials. Jones records the reactions produced by a concoction of chemical composites, which inflict fragility upon her chosen materials. The recording of phenomena through unconventional mixtures of supplements combined with clay bodies; show the transition of the material through its metamorphic stages in its enclosed environment. 

Contain explores a diverse range of materials, showcasing the development of the natural growth within a confined environment which creates a fluctuating palate of texture and colour. Provoking questions about if beauty requires the existence of a beholder?
