Barbara ANN JORDAN

Fine Artist

Based in Swansea, Wales, Ann Jordan’s work is often site-responsive and has a performative element, which references both historical and contemporary culture. The chosen materials are integral to the development of each work and to the concept underpinning it. Jordan deconstructs and then reconstructs the many layered textures and ideas to create a relationship between the domestic, private space and the public siting of the object/performance. In this way Jordan hopes to generate a dialogue, which engenders a cultural aesthetic and becomes a vehicle for social encounter. The key pre-requisite for the work is its relevance and accessibility to all members of society. A common thread of caring and continuity of line keep emerging within the work, which reflects Jordan’s initial profession and life experiences.

At present she continues to experiment and work with variety of media and is involved in collaborations with other artists.
