Dancing in silver-grey spaces between This and That, multi-media practitioner Leona Jones explores the hardlyheard and underseen, the conscious and not-so-conscious to create events/performances and installations centred around language, voice, sound and spatiality. Using field recordings, audio and site-responsiveness, as well as text, she actively seeks to highlight physicality and context.  Cross-disciplinary collaboration is central to her practice, and she’s worked with musicians, visual artists, dancers and performance artists.  Leona makes a concerted effort to reach into an audience’s imagination, encouraging their ability to listen.  She believes listening to be vital to any society. - leonajones.co.uk
