Anthologia IV | Katherine Jones

With her poem, The Place, Janet Frame evokes a landscape that lingers between presence and disappearance — a remembered field where hens once basked, a hedge and a railway line that persist only through memory. It is a world half-erased, yet insistently alive.

In the work of Katherine Jones, this same tension between endurance and loss is made visible. Her prints and paintings transform archetypal motifs — houses, trees, suns, flowers — into fragile markers of belonging and uncertainty. Through layered veils of colour and light, Jones constructs spaces that seem simultaneously to appear and dissolve, much like Frame’s remembered place: a site that holds its own vanishing within it.

Both artist and poet illuminate the shifting boundary between safety and erasure, between what is kept and what fades. Frame’s words “I don’t not remember these things — they remember me” might well describe Jones’s approach to image-making: an act of recall that allows memory itself to take form, flickering between the real and the imagined.

Together, their works remind us that place is never fixed — it is an echo, a trace, a fragile continuity between what was and what remains.
