Monotypes And Woodcuts Mounted On Linen With Raw Pigment Edition of Dimensions (WxH): 100 x 100cm
Painting and printmaking are at the centre of John’s practice. The combining of natural pigments with Monotypes and Woodcuts from found or recycled materials extends the possibilities of mark making. These works fuse image meaning and medium to explore our relationship with the natural world. His practice bypasses a dominant extractionist ideology in order to explore a more ecocentric engagement with our environment.
John’s latest works are created through a process of layering many printed and dyed Japanese papers. The surface becomes a textured palimpsest of marks and colours which explore aspects of nature that lie beyond the visible. These expressive works are amalgamations of notes and drawings made in the landscape and the process and materials directly relate to the physicality and texture of these hidden spaces. The frequent use of earth and found timber reflects both the subject and the wild nature of these works.
