Jacqueline Rolls’ “Interventions” explore site-responsive and process-led approaches to making, often emerging through direct engagement with place, material, and environment.
These works are shaped by observation, collection, and response, using found, natural, and discarded materials to create temporary or evolving outcomes. The work is often influenced by the history, function, and atmosphere of a location, as well as its overlooked or transitional elements.
Through these interventions, materials are reinterpreted and recontextualised, allowing new relationships between form, texture, and space to emerge.
Projects have included residencies and research-based work developed at Tudor House Museum in Southampton and Furzey Gardens in the New Forest, where experimentation with site-specific materials and processes formed a key part of the work.
