Jon Duplock graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2002 and spent 2003-2005 in Japan, where he worked as a teacher and further developed his art. Since returning to England, Jon has exhibited in a number of London galleries and his first major a solo show was held at The Russell Gallery in Oct 2007.

Jon has recently moved to Exeter in Devon. He is currently preparing for his next show which will be influenced by time spent in Rajasthan and Varanasi.  

This collection of paintings are a response to time spent in five very different countries; India, Tanzania, Nepal, Laos and the USA. The paintings reflect memories, often of an unusual or emotive experience. Travel is an integral source of inspiration for Jon's art, and a rich narrative underpins his work.
