Installation and sculpture is the focus of Jacqueline's work, which investigates negotiations of space.
Staff details
Installation and sculpture is the focus for much of Jacqueline's work in which investigations into the visual and conceptual negotiation of space have initiated developments into the exploration and interaction of the viewer with the work and the potential for addressing the processes of art practice. This has begun to be explored in the interactive series of works Space for Children.
Jacqueline's recent outputs include public exhibitions in galleries such as Kunstnernes Hus, Oslo, Musee des Beaux Arts, Dunkerque and Royal West of England Academy, Bristol. Articles on her work have been published in international papers and journals such as Art Monthly, The Independent, World Sculpture News and Sculpture (International Sculpture Centre, USA). As a curator Jacqueline has worked with Danielle Arnaud Contemporary Art co-curating Species of Spaces in 2002.
