Nowhere - Jess Wilson
Long term fans of Amelia's Magazine will no doubt recognise the inimitable work of Jess Wilson wherever they chance upon it: be it in my first book, Amelia's Anthology of Illustration, in the pages of zines produced by her Duke Press, on prints sold by the likes of East End Prints and Jealous Gallery, illustrating articles in the Guardian magazine or adorning the walls of building sites (she produced an amazing mural which for a time existed opposite Rich Mix on Bethnal Green Road). Her quirky characters are created in rich pencil textures, usually accompanied by decorative witty text. So it comes as something of a surprise to find out that this is only her first solo show, and it's on now at Jealous Gallery in Crouch End.

'The show is called Nowhere and is about nothing in particular. It's a series of prints and originals created by Jess Wilson, which will make you smile, (hopefully).'
