Jo McGonnigal
Jo is currently undertaking a Practice based PhD at the University of Leeds that examines Painting and Materiality [Amanda Burton Scholarship]. Jo studied Fine Art at the University of West of England and later completed her MFA at Manchester School of Art in 2008.
Her practice is concerned with hybridised forms of painting that have resonance within the phenomenological ambitions of Minimalism. Her practice considers how the compositional and material components of painting affect the experiential basis of the viewer, not what the painting means but what it does.
