You Could Be Anywhere! Jonny Campolo at JEFF’S

Runner Magazine Sep 13, 2021
Description

Entering the space with a thought on the mind related to the viscosity of glass expands the potential of the read of the work like quantum physics allows you to walk through walls. It becomes a philosophical game of how far we can stretch our consideration of the materials in front of us, which is also complimented significantly by the setting. The first exhibition at JEFF’S is a series of works made by cutting, layering and melting glass to create collages of translucent and transparent layers. As the viewer navigates the space, it alters how the work can be perceived as the colors change and the shadows grow and recede. How refreshing it can be to be greeted with a text that meanders around the work like a curious conversation. “Is glass a liquid or a solid?” That is naturally a question that could come about by viewing the works as visually resembling spills of color, with their amorphous forms, rounded edges and the ability to influence each other through the mixing of the colors when lit.
