Artwork
Thoughtfully assembling different elements, artist John Gardner creates a backdrop of turquoise, converging all his components in the middle. A grid creates a secondary layer, providing structure and form. Red and pink rays spread out from a wheel, its shape echoed in a blue circle partially hidden by a pillar of a striped gray print. Part of John's newest series of mixed media works meticulously hand cut from vintage paper and stitched with thread on heavyweight paper. Comes matted with an archival matte and backing for easy framing. Backing is also signed, titled and dated.

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.
