Jane Hayes Greenwood b. 1986, Manchester

Jane Hayes Greenwood currently lives and works in London. She received an MA in Fine Art from City & Guilds of London Art School in 2015. Her work emerges from a painting practice, spanning works on linen, CGI animation, sculpture and installation.
Her recent paintings from ‘The Witch’s Garden’ series feature dreamlike plants. The plants act as possible ingredients for potions or spells and explore the ways we attempt to treat and control our bodies and minds. The works consider desire and magical thinking, referencing herbal fertility guides and ancient spell books.
Recent solo shows include 'The Witch's Garden' at GiG, Munich, Germany (2019) and 'Lead Me Not Into Temptation' at Block 336, London, UK (2017). Hayes Greenwood’s work has featured in numerous group exhibitions internationally and was published in the Anomie Review of Contemporary British Painting, 2018 alongside artists such as Lubaina Himid, Rose Wylie and Peter Doig. She is the co-founder and Director of Block 336, a project space, studio provider and UK arts charity based in South London, and teaches part-time on the BA Fine Art course at City & Guilds of London Art School.
