Interview: Trevor Jones – An artist with a startling take on popular music
“Everyone who’s heard the song more than once will know what it sounds like, but what does it look like? Well, if you’re Edinburgh-based artist Trevor Jones, it’s a solid wall of white and gray colliding with a confused mass of blues, purples and pinks, all underpinned by a vivid block of orange.”
