Gethin Wyn Jones's profile

Digital Ash in a Digital Urn - Solo Exhibition

Fine Arts
Brought up in Bangor, North Wales but settled in Devon since graduating from Bath Spa University in 2006, Wyn Jones spent adolescent hours playing computer games to escape the quiet, often rainy, north Wales landscape. The fast vivid space of virtual reality triumphed over the actual rugged attraction of his surroundings but in his series of works exhibited at MOSTYN he strips back the computer visuals to create something very still, the space perceived beyond the screen, bringing him full-circle to that 'image' he would see out outside his window. The works play with the viewer’s perception of space as they both suggest and deny any conventional reading of perspective with the viewer’s position animating the work to create three-dimensional shapes from flat planes. A large-scale wall installation, taking the exhibition title Digital Ash in a Digital Urn, takes Wyn Jones’s work out of the frame, allowing us to engage with it in new ways.
