Coming of age during the cultural shifts of the 1960s, where he emerged as a central protagonist in British Pop, Jones has maintained a distinctive compulsion in depicting the body. Focusing on questions of visual perception, sexuality, and performance, his practice draws on fashion, advertising and cinema.

Theatricality unites a new series of dramatic paintings by Allen Jones. Figures dance across canvases, their bodies fragmented and shifting. Rendered in a saturated palette of green, yellow, and red, the paintings transport the viewer to an intoxicating, dreamlike space. As Jones decscribed in October 2026: "The picture is not the record of an event, but is the event. Visualising performance on stage is itself a performance on canvas – both are a record of creative invention"

Fully-Fashioned (2025–26) is a distinctively shaped modest scale canvas that had the energy of a lightning flash. A pair of female legs in stockings and heels appear from the top of the picture and rest on one of the illusionistic planes of the composition. There is a tongue-in-cheek quality to the title – the figure is not, of course, 'fully fashioned'; instead she hovers above the viewer's eye line, tantalisingly out of reach.
