About the Item

Artist Comments
A collage depicts an iris blooming against a vibrant yellow background. It explores the intersection of natural growth and mechanical rhythm through geometric abstraction. The circular motion within the flower's center represents continuous cycles of energy and renewal.


About the Artist
John’s meticulous collages are crafted from vintage materials such as old textbooks, magazines, found paper, and even embroidery. The resulting images exist in another world characterized by a magical, cinematic quality. Each piece creates a unique story that teeters on the edges of surrealism and science fiction. The viewer is left contemplating the relationship between the shapes and figures in the scenes. John’s collages are further marked by their clean aesthetics and precise execution. He currently lives and works in New York.
