Evan Jones is a painter based in Atlanta, Georgia. He graduated
with a bachelor of fine arts in painting from SCAD Atlanta.
Jones has exhibited throughout the United States and his work
has been published in New American Paintings twice, issues 130
and 148.
Jones was born and raised in the mountains of Cashiers, North
Carolina and he draws heavily on the visual language of the
American south combined with the visual language of America at
large. Jones’ paintings can be likened to an antique market,
which serves as a de facto visual archive where objects are
considered not for their original meaning or context but for
their aesthetic qualities. By bringing together widely varying
and often disparate references, ignoring their original meaning,
and offering them on the canvas, Jones’ paintings act like a
visual archive where aesthetics take precedence over meaning,
and subjects can be consumed in a new way through the
distillation of paint.
