His work integrates elements of Gestalt psychology, optics, and illusions of depth to create immersive environments that invite aesthetic engagement and quiet contemplation. These layered visual experiences encourage viewers to pause, reflect, and see the familiar in a new way, sparking moments of wonder that open fresh pathways of thought.
For his fourth visit to Catwalk, John will create a series of landscape paintings inspired by the exact locations and techniques of Thomas Cole and the Hudson River School—infused with a contemporary sense of place.
