Octavious Jones is a multifaceted abstract artist born in Montreal, Canada. Jones first found his feet through events and exhibitions, live painting as well as exhibiting sculptures. Octavious was recognized for his Amphibious Readymade Creatures, and has since developed an array of artworks, including interactive installations, bronze sculptures, a fountain, paintings and much more. Most notably, Octavious exhibited a series of magnets frozen in ice.
Octavious recently completed his residency at Concordia University. Curated by Art Volt , Jones was invited to create his most advanced amphibious creatures for an exhibition.
"Jones agrees the Galerie B collaboration has been a great experience. “I’ve had opportunities presented to me as a result,” he says. “I’ve met a lot of people who are interested in my future work. This Galerie B project proves there are opportunities for us.”
