The name is somehow apt. "Piers" is romantic, medieval, Pre-Raphaelite. "Jackson" down to earth, no nonsense, tough. The man combines both aspects. Of great physical beauty and always dressed with a kind of sloppy elegance, his attitude to his work is totally committed - little else matters. His personal bohemianism is a mask. His work is both ingenious and rigorously crafted. It is poetic, far from reassuring, but he is not in the least out to shock in the contemporary manner. It demands contemplation. It resonates. (George Melly)

I had also included his Symphony in Black in Room 9 of Tate Britain as part of New Gothic.It was right that Piers Jackson’s art was shown in such contexts – a discipline that befits the context and narrative of which it is infused. It always struck me, that when so much contemporary art is at the service of commerce; Piers Jackson’s work – like only the rare and elusive best - is at the service of the mind.
(Martin Sexton)

In spite of the works' aesthetic precision which could give the impression of a will to totally control the artistic process of geometric, luminous and quasi sculptural composition, Jackson is in fact interested in that which escapes willful choices and emotionally expressive gestures, that is, the effacement of his own presence.
