Jayne Smith 
Jayne has come from a background of arts and crafts, having had experience in craft design, special paint effects and interior design. She studied fine art with KIAD, at both Maidstone and Canterbury colleges, before moving to Cornwall in 2005 where she is continues her studies at Falmouth. 
 
Jayne’s work deals with our relationship to the forgotten and abandoned spaces within our environment and the effect that these sites have on us. Her aim is to instigate memories and emotions relating to the viewers own existence in the world by heightening our awareness of these sites, following in the tradition of the Romantics. 
 
At present she is exploring the use of multiple views, connecting the images to a filmic view of a particular place. This provides the viewer with a way of entering into and through the painting, facilitating an enhanced engagement with the associations that the site evokes. 
 
Jayne’s exploration of the emotive qualities inherent within a particular location as expressed through the medium of paint is an ongoing concern in the development of her work and she continues to experiment with its properties as a way of offering up ambiguous translations and interpretations of her subjects.
