Artist Profile

 Jenny Core graduated in 2009 from The University of Huddersfield with a BA Hons in Fine Art: Drawing and Painting. Core now lives and works in Manchester and exhibits her drawing, installations and new media works internationally. Narrative, chance and play. These three ingredients contribute to the formation of Core's alternate reality/utopia. This utopia is created to give the audience a space dedicated to play. The space can be seen as a form of escapism; this is not the artists intention. It is a reminder of how to play, displaying an opportunity for the viewer. It introduces alternate ways of seeing the world.  

 

"Jenny Core's drawings, suggestive as they are of an almost cloistered reverie. Core takes functional objects and imagines their dysfunctional use as props and animated protagonists in her own private dream world. Here the proper conventions of domesticity and the simple laws of physics no longer hold sway: an angle-poise lamp shoots out a beam of blackness; hairdryers pose in animated mid-performance; an office fan emits an ectoplasmic cloud. It's unashamed graphic escapism: in one past drawing a wooden enclosure is labelled with the slogan "Do Not Sit On The Fence – You Will Get A Sore Arse"."

-Robert Clarke, The Guardian (2011).
