Hannan Jones
Hannan Jones is an artist-composer of Algerian and Welsh origin.
Working at the intersections of sound, installation, performance and moving image, Hannan’s practice responds to cultural and social migration by engaging language, rhythm, and identity.With an emphasis on worldbuilding, psycho-geography, and hybridity Hannan adopts a research-based, interdisciplinary approach that allows for creating projects that expand our perspective and reflect ourselves in our surroundings; to find moments of ‘togetherness,’ if only temporary.
Her work has been exhibited as part of Edinburgh Art Festival (Edinburgh); David Dale Gallery (Glasgow); Triangle-Asterides (Marseille); and as part of Perspective(s), Artes Mundi, National Roman Legion Museum, ACW, Amgueddfa Cymru (Wales) and Goolugatup Heathcote (Perth, Australia). Live performances have taken place as part of Counterflows Festival; Cafe Oto; Tate Modern; Nottingham Contemporary; Q-O2, Material Forma (Brussels) and SAVVY Contemporary for Archive Sites (Berlin).
Recent residencies include Wysing Art Centre; Cambridge, WORM Rotterdam x Radiophrenia, Akademie Schloss Solitude (DE) in partnership with Liquid Architecture for Algorithmic (AU) Poetry Web Residencies Triangle-Asterides supported by the CCA and Glasgow Sculpture Studios. Jones holds a BA (Hons) in Sculpture and Environmental Art from Glasgow School of Art and was an Artist Associate at Open School East.
