Due to the sad death of Rodney Brache KIOSK has been cancelled and the Coach House Gallery closed. I am currently looking for an alternative venue.


Small paintings on canvas board 25 x 30 cm feature bunkers floating adrift amidst a fantasy seaside iconography of stripes and ice-creams/ lollies. The unlikely pairing of an over-sized kitsch ornament or a plastic model ice-lolly placed casually upon a redundant fortification playfully emphasises the futility of war and the often absurdity of WW11 camouflage techniques whilst undermining general oppression and control mechanisms through the use of analogy and metaphor.
Brutalist Ice-cream and Projectile sculptures - Paying homage to Guernsey’s German Occupation heritage, Jeni often works with cast-concrete methodology to create her sculptures, such as in her new series of ‘Brutalist ice-creams’. Adopting the make-do-and-mend creative resourcefulness of Channel-Islanders under German Occupation, Jeni combines found discarded objects collected from her daily walks in the city with her made objects. Re-purposing has developed from her life-choices into her arts practice and is also a comment against human greed and our throw-away society.
And a series of digital drawings and paintings for limited edition signed giclée prints.
