About the Item

Entering the City - Surrealist Fantasy Landscape in Acrylic on Canvas Bold surrealist scene by California artist Joff Jones (American, b. 1992). A human-like figure is walking towards a city, with a four-legged creature. They are shown as significantly larger than the city. There are glowing lights in the buildings, implying a nocturnal scene. Signed "Joff Jones" in the lower left corner. Dated "4-2014" in the lower right corner. Unframed, but the edges are painted for a frame-less display. Canvas size: 14"H x 11"W Joff Jones (American, b. 1992) is an artist and musician from California. Jones is self-taught, having passed up a scholarship to attend California Institute of the Arts after witnessing an older classmate and friend “lose his artistic individuality” by pursuing formal studies. Instead, he forged his own path and focused on creating his own characteristic style. When creating art, Jones reports that he rarely has a plan and sometimes doesn’t even feel in control, letting the creativity flow naturally. “At times, it’s like I’m in the passenger seat, watching myself create.” Yet in the end, his art frequently contains themes that he feels are of utmost importance – climate change, interpersonal relationships, and the future of humanity. Jones spent several years in Santa Cruz, California, but has now moved to Autin, Texas to further his career as an artist and musician.

"Outskirts", acrylic painting, duality, nature, humanity, chaos, dream, myth
Located in Toronto, Ontario
"Outskirts" is an acrylic painting with collage elements on canvas, measuring 38" high by 44" wide. There's nowhere to hide in any of William's paintings, that's part of the charge coming off his canvases. That's particularly true with this painting – we immediately see that everything is wrong, hands coming out of trees, a human head on a horse or dog. Yes it's Mythic but even there it's wrong, the legs are impossibly crossed. In fact little of this painting can be true and yet here it is. Out of control, left over and residual ways and means of living life. Who or what are we now? Press Release 2018: "Williams acknowledges a large range of influences on his vision: the moral lessons embodied in the works of 17th century engraver Jacques Lagniet, the darkling phantasms and tragic reportage of Goya’s Caprichos...
