About the Item

Artist Comments
Spirit is part of my Vignettes series of mixed media works. This piece is meticulously hand cut from vintage paper. The work is comprised of collage on heavyweight paper with archival adhesive. It is matted with an archival matte and backing and will require a frame for display. Artwork dimensions: 6(h) x 4(w) Matte dimensions: 10(h) x 8(w)

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 is based in New York, where he is the Director of Visual Arts & Exhibitions at View Arts in the Adirondack Mountains.
