Sydney-based painter Alun Rhys Jones depicts the melancholy, alienation and detachment that lie behind the glossy veneer of consumerism. The images are clean and precise, while the painting style is physical, loose and expressive.
Through the use of high key, luminous colour he exploits the language of fashion and advertising in order to subvert it. His painterly hand references his desire for a return of humanity and spirit to a consumerist world.
