John Gardner
Terraform, Abstract Painting

2022

About the Item

Artist Comments
Set against a deep blue background, cut-outs of the sky, a tree, and the moon's surface are enclosed within a strip of paper and geometric-shaped thread. The collage reflects on the venture to new planets, inquiring into the hopeful interpretation of creating a new world. The visually intriguing composition inspires thoughts about uncharted territories and boundless possibilities.


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.

  • The Traveler, Abstract Painting
    By Patrick O'Boyle
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    "I've always been fascinated by what people see in my paintings," says artist Patrick O'Boyle. He displays an implication of a man traveling the deep void of brilliant hues. Part of his series of colorful abstracts with hints of recognizable subject matter that leaves the viewer room to explore. He combines techniques of collage and painting to unfold a dreamy and entertaining narrative.


    About the Artist
    Patrick O'Boyle primarily paints in a studio, rarely using reference material other than his own thoughts and dreams. He always paints in a series of five - at the end of the fifth painting he revisits and reworks all of them until he feels they're complete. Using extra-long handles on his brushes, Patrick paints at a distance from the canvas so he can see the works evolve as a whole from the one color he starts with to the vibrant array at the end.
