Sculpture by Jo Delafons
JO DELAFONS
Jo Delafons’ delicate mixed media sculptures capture the essence of the distinctive landscape around Shoreham by Sea, where she lives. Her works echo with birds’ cries, the crunch of pebbles and the jumble of half thoughts, feelings and memories walking triggers.
Paper pulp and wire capture foaming waves, frosted stems and silhouettes that float and hover as though drawn with the scratchy line of a leaky ink pen. Tangled branches and dark mudbanks dissolve into ripples or scatter like birds. Ships teeter, roll or sail serenely through life’s turbulence.
The intense emotional connection she feels to the landscape is clear, but so too is our own and nature’s frailty.
