Jonathan Ashworth

Jonathan Ashworth grew up in Leeds, Yorkshire. He is a graduate of Edinburgh College of Art and the RCA, London.

Jonathan's prints aim to meld the age-old sensibilities of the natural world with contemporary concerns of city life; they show the ambition of individual lives, the context of social divide as well as ‘windows’ into the pastoral and rural world, as a reminder of natural growing rhythms and cycles which are part of us and on which we depend. His imagery shows the need for urban development to respond to the needs and wellbeing of diverse ecosystems – from nightingales, ash groves and foxes, to teenagers, lovers and our respected elders.
