Bio
Jefford’s multidisciplinary practice spans sculpture, drawing, painting, writing and video, yet his open-ended approach often yields hybrid forms that elude categorisation. Working with recurring materials and repurposed everyday objects, his pieces frequently carry the uncanny familiarity of scaled-up miniatures or pseudo-functional props—objects that might belong to some alternate educational display or speculative world-building model.
