I will be exhibiting at this year's (60th)

part of a wonderful art collective, called ‘The Proseed Collective’.

We will be on show at the
beautiful Palazzo Bembo (@palazzobembo) which overlooks the Grand Canal and the
world famous Rialto Bridge.
I was invited to join this
wonderful collective by Daniel Ibbotson @danielibbotsonartist who formed the
collective in 2020 and which has now grown to include artists from all over the
UK.
This will be our first
international exhibition together.
Title of my piece: ‘Windows on another life’
Maps are a very ancient way of making sense of our world, the earliest
maps were just scratches on rocks and tablets and depended on information
included or left out by the maker, existing as an imperfect mirror on reality.
Jans latest pieces are mythical maps and reference the discomfort of
migration and displacement, otherness, detachment, and entrapment. They are
also intended to show the possibility for change, something buried and reborn,
and the power maps have in helping us find our way to something new.
