In Jacqueline Rolls’ practice, film functions as a conversational bridge, giving viewers a deeper contextual understanding of her work.
Rather than focusing on raw, practical making or active studio exploration, these short films and interviews center on the narrative behind the art. They feature Jacqueline discussing her background, explaining the background context of her projects, and breaking down the specific physical items and raw elements that anchor her creations.
Through these recordings, she shares insights into her creative timeline, her thoughts on working within historical environments, and the physical material choices that shape her finished forms.
