Darcy Jones- Artist Statement
My work is an expression of connection and a way of coming home to myself. It is born in the place between worlds: between known and unknown, seen and unseen, heart and mind, body and spirit. It is a bridge and the threshold. I make art because it demands it of me and I feel thrilled by the creation of it. I am happy to focus on making the art that I like making and that speaks to something deeply personal about being a human on the planet. In the words of the theologian and psychologist, Henri Nouwen, “that which is the most personal is the most Universal” I believe that having a vision for what we want as individual and society is a crucial element in our journey in moving toward that.

Bio
Asheville, NC, based artist, Darcy Jones, has been inspired by the human figure since 1992. She spent 15 years working as a sculptor in the film industry. In 2014 she returned to ceramic sculpture after a decade long hiatus during which she received a Master’s degree in Clinical Social Work and began a private practice. This current body of work represents the meeting place of deep healing and authentic self expression.
