Rachael Jones uses her artistic research-based filmmaking practice to explore creative methods to connect people and place. She works between still and moving images, often blending archive photographs with newly created visuals, incorporating both analogue and digital formats to produce playful tension in her moving image work. In addition to commissioned work, she is a workshop facilitator and offers one-to-one mentoring support for artistic-research projects.
Driven by what can come out of research, embodiment and participation, Rachael’s films retain traces of process-driven interactions, using experimental filmmaking, sound and animation techniques. In 2023 she completed an AHRC-funded practice-based PhD with University of the Arts London (UAL), which explored emergent mixed methods that call attention to the value of participation and process.
