About the artist:

Jesse Jones is a Dublin-based artist. Her practice is multi-platform, working in film, performance and sculpture through speculative feminisms and myth. She studied sculpture in NCAD and IADT and has been making film for gallery installations since 2005. She has shown nationally and internationally with films made in Korea, Los Angeles, Ireland, The UK and Australia.

She represented Ireland at the Venice Biennale 2017 with the film installation entitled: "Tremble Tremble" whose title is inspired by the 1970s Italian wages for housework movement, during which women chanted “Tremate, tremate, le streghe sono tornate! (Tremble, tremble, the witches have returned!)”. Her most recent work, "The White Cave" will premiere in October 2025 at the Singapore Biennale. She is the 2025 recipient of the Authored works artist film award by the Arts Council of Ireland for which she will make her first feature film entitled: "Pinnacle Point" an eco-feminist thriller starring Olwen Fouere. She teaches on Sherkin Island, West Cork for TU Dublin and is an elected member of Aosdána.
