Join us for this free talk with Lucia Jones, recipient of the Wakelin Award 2025!

Lucia Jones will discuss the themes and works featured in the Wakelin 2025 exhibition, currently on display at Glynn Vivian Art Gallery in Room 7.

Her practice explores memory and self-perception through the constructs of paint and film. Focusing on the female psyche in painted space, she draws inspiration from 50s-90s b-movies, art history, and her own photographs, recontextualising women as anonymised subjects within fractured and fabricated environments. These painted scenes act as cyphers for lived experience, to be glimpsed and examined.

The Award is administered and supported by the Friends of the Glynn Vivian, together with donations in memory of Richard and Rosemary Wakelin.

Booking essential. Limited spaces available

Friday 16 January 2026, 2:00 pm – 3:00 pm
