Sam Jones received her MFA from Tyler School of Art at Temple University in Philadelphia, PA, USA. She has attended several residencies, including the Vermont Studio Center. She is fascinated by the dialogue between the urban and wild, pairing industrial and synthetic materials with a baroque temperament in an attempt to render visible the mutating architecture of interior experience.

She currently lives on the coast of Maine, and continues to exhibit her work throughout New England, Philadelphia, and New York.
