Jealous is proud to announce the upcoming solo exhibition of the highly celebrated artist, Jess Wilson.
Looking for a summer getaway, but don’t want to leave London? Embark on a captivating staycation at Jealous, where you can explore Wilson’s extraordinary collection of works. From intricately designed maps and method-led floral screenprints, Jealous will be transformed into a resplendent display of colours, with walls adorned with Wilson’s mixed-media artworks. Previously showcased at The Saatchi Gallery in Chelsea, Wilson’s work embodies a playful spirit that builds on her deep understanding of colour and form, which she uses to create works filled with vitality.
Standing tall and dominating the gallery space is a signpost installation adapted from a commissioned design the artist made for Tomorrowland Festival last year. This exhibition marks the union of graphic design and screenprinting at its finest.
The show consists of new works as well as cherished prints from the artist’s archive such as her illustrative maps: ‘Love Around The World’ and ‘Capital Cities Around the World’.
Jess Wilson's new Leaf Study works are unique pieces! Each artwork is different, with gold, paladium or moon gold leaf gilding.
