Jocjonjosch

Jocelyn Marchington, Joschi Herczeg, Jonathan Brantschen. English-Swiss artist collective based in Zürich and Lewisham/London. Through performance, sculpture, painting, photography and video our work addresses the fraught relation between the individual and the group, as well as the ways in which oppositions such as success and failure, efficiency and waste, purposiveness and pointlessness, have a tendency to slide into one another when pushed to their logical extremes. jocjonjosch has exhibited widely across Europe, including in England, Switzerland, Italy, Netherlands, and France.
