The London dealer Asprey Jacques described Jeff Ono’s work as “exploring internal architectural structures for their inherent strength, beauty and fragility with a use of materials which falls into the realm of the hobbyist. Ono’s practice has not really changed since he first started making objects six years ago – he still lives and works in the same apartment so the scale of the sculptures remains the same: no bigger than an ottoman.” And about his work, Ken Johnson has said, “The results look like a cross between futuristic architecture and anatomical interiors. His work is a long time in the making but always worth the wait…” (New York Times) Living and working in Los Angeles, Ono attended Cooper Union School of Art in New York from 1991-1994. He has exhibited in the United States and abroad, including solo shows at Marc Foxx in Los Angeles and Feature, Inc. in New York.
