Jordan Wood's work traverses the spaces between histories and
fictions, artefacts and the discarded, what we choose to conceal and decide to
expose. Using ceramics, collage, sculpture and installation, she distorts
cultural collateral to distort contemporary hierarchies attached to objects,
knowledge and space. Magazines and museums, retail spaces and universities
employ a diverse range of mechanisms to present outputs of ideas and objects,
ready for the play. These environments, ‘unnatural’ yet caught in cycles of
destruction and growth, offer abundant resources to ruminate and reassemble in
an attempt to make new understandings.
Wood completed a Bachelor of Fine Art (Honours) at the Victorian
College of the Arts in 2007. Her works have been widely exhibited, including
group exhibitions As Long as the Night is Dark at [MARS] Gallery and Wagga
Wagga Regional Gallery (2017), Horror Show at Strange Neighbour and Gippsland Art
Gallery (2015) and solo exhibitions Twofold at Tinning Street Presents (2019),
The Dark Passenger at Gippsland Art Gallery (2016), Flat Space at Rubicon
Gallery (2015) and Atrophia at West Space (2012).
