Jessica Warboys uses a variety of mediums, from video to ceramics, performance and painting. The artist’s films depict symbols, metaphors and associations of ideas and images to construct a story that everyone is free to interpret.
Filmed on the volcanic island of Stromboli, Stone Throat refers to the legend that Strombolicchio -a nearby basalt island- is the top of the island thrown into the sea after a violent eruption.
