AARON JONES creates objects and images to explore the inherent possibilities in world-building and abstraction. Employing found images, video and lens-based media, he works with different forms of collage to build characters and spaces that reflect upon the nuances of his own upbringing and current life, as a way of finding peace. Recent exhibitions include GTA21, a triennial survey presented by MOCA, Toronto (2021), Three Thirty at Doris McCarthy Gallery (2020), From the Ground Up at NIA Centre for the Arts (2019), Ragga NYC at Mercer Union (2018) and Propped at Oakville Galleries (2017). His solo exhibition Open Fist, Closed Palm at Zalucky Contemporary was awarded The Gattuso Prize for “Best Featured Exhibition” during the 2020 Scotiabank CONTACT Photography Festival. Jones is working on an upcoming project for Nuit Blanche, Toronto. He graduated with a BFA in Photography from OCADU in 2018.  His work is included in the collections of The Robert McLaughlin Gallery, Ryerson Image Centre, Wedge Curatorial Projects, Royal Bank of Canada and numerous private collections. He is represented by Zalucky Contemporary in Toronto.
