Jon Barraclough questions ideas of authorship, authenticity and ownership, often working in collaboration or in partnership with others. His art making creates fragments - sometimes generated (drawn, photographed, filmed, painted), sometimes found, juxtaposed and re-presented to form clues to our purpose and to our inter-connectedness with all things: real, imaginary, living, dead.
He chooses media to suit his enquiry, although drawing remains his longest and most durable companion. His working themes include the ghosts of history and the traces that all living things make and leave behind.
